10525. 'And Jehovah spoke to Moses' means instruction regarding the essential nature of the worship and the Church among the Israelite nation. This is clear from the meaning of 'speaking', when done by Jehovah, as instruction, dealt with in the places referred to in 10280. The reason why instruction regarding the essential nature of the worship and the Church among the Israelite nation is meant is that that worship is dealt with in the present chapter, as may be recognized from the Contents of the chapter declared above in 10523.

10421. 'Whom you caused to come up out of the land of Egypt' means whom, you believed, you had led to the Divine. This is clear from the meaning of 'causing to come up out of the land of Egypt' as raising from the external level to the internal, thus leading to the Divine. 'Causing to go up' means raising from the external to the internal, and 'Egypt' means the natural or external man from which a person is raised.

'Causing to go up' means raising from the external to the internal, see 3084, 4539, 4969, 5406, 5817.

'Egypt' is the natural or external level, see in the places referred to in 9391.
