Arcana Coelestia # 6805
6805. 'And God saw the children of Israel' means that He endowed the Church with faith. This is clear from the meaning of 'seeing' as having faith, dealt with in 897, 2325, 2807, 3863, 3869, 4403-4421, 5400, so that 'God saw' is endowing with faith (for faith comes from God); and from the meaning of 'the children of Israel' as the Church, dealt with in 6637.
Deuteronomy 7:11
11
You shall therefore keep the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which I command you this day, to do them.
