10479. 'And Moses saw that the people had become undisciplined' means that the internal perceived that this nation had turned away from what was internal and so from what was Divine. This is clear from the meaning of 'seeing' as perceiving; from the representation of 'Moses' as the internal, dealt with above in 10468; and from the meaning of 'becoming undisciplined' as turning away, at this point away from what is internal, and so from what is Divine, as accords with the explanation above in 10472. The word used in the original language furthermore means to turn away and retreat, also to be made naked; and 'to be made naked' means to be stripped of the good of love and the truths of faith, which constitute the internal things of the Church and its worship, 9960.
