7390. 'And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron' means the presence of the law of God. This is clear from the meaning of 'calling' as presence, dealt with in 6177 (the reason why 'calling' means presence is that a person calls someone when he wishes to speak to him or to convey his thoughts, and in the next life it is in keeping with the law of order that the person to whom someone wishes to speak and desires to convey his thoughts comes to be present); from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who are steeped in falsities and engage in molestation, often dealt with already; and from the representation of 'Moses' as inward law, and the representation of 'Aaron' as outward law, both dealt with above in 7381.
