7551. 'You go on exalting yourself against My people' means because he does not yet refrain from molesting those guided by truth and governed by good. This is clear from the meaning of 'still exalting himself' as not yet refraining from molesting; for molesters think that they have control over those molested by them when they see these in distress and still undelivered, even after they themselves have been warned not to molest; and from the representation of the children of Israel, to whom 'My people' refers here, as those who belong to the spiritual Church, or what amounts to the same, those who are guided by truth and governed by good, dealt with in 4286, 6426, 6637, 6862, 6868, 7035, 7062, 7198, 7201, 7215, 7213.
