62. The stages and states of the regeneration of man - both of mankind and of the individual person - divide into six and are called the days of his creation.

8444. 'And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying' means truth that goes forth from the Lord's Divine and holds the Lord's presence within it. This is clear from the meaning of 'speaking' as influx and instruction, as above in 8441; and from the representation of 'Moses' as truth that goes forth from the Lord's Divine, dealt with in 6752, 6771, 6827, 7010, 7014, 7089, 7382. The Lord's presence within truth from the Divine is meant by Jehovah's speaking to Moses from the cloud in which the glory of Jehovah was seen; for 'the glory of Jehovah' is the Lord's presence within truth that goes forth from Him, 8427.
