Arcana Coelestia #10611
10611. 'And Moses rose early in the morning, and went up to Mount Sinai' means a new beginning in the revelation of Divine Truth. This is clear from what has also been shown above, in 10605, where similar words occur.
Numbers 25:1-3
1
And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.
2
And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
3
And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.
