12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, saying, For evil did he bring them forth, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.

10512. 'Which Aaron made' means that it exists as a result of the external things which alone they love. This is clear from the representation of 'Aaron' as the external side of the Word, the Church, and worship, dealt with in 10397, 10468, 10480. When the external alone is loved the external is said to make that [idol]; but the nation which loves external things alone should be understood by this.
