1 И сказал Господь Моисею, говоря:

2 скажи сынам Израилевым, чтобы они обратились и расположились станом пред Пи-Гахирофом, между Мигдолом и между морем, пред Ваал-Цефоном; напротив его поставьте стан у моря.

3 И скажет фараон о сынах Израилевых: они заблудились в земле сей,заперла их пустыня.

4 А Я ожесточу сердце фараона, и он погонится за ними, и покажу славу Мою на фараоне и на всем войске его; и познают Египтяне, что Я Господь. И сделали так.

5 И возвещено было царю Египетскому, что народ бежал; и обратилось сердце фараона и рабов его против народа сего, и они сказали: что это мы сделали? зачем отпустили Израильтян, чтобы они не работали нам?

6 Фараон запряг колесницу свою и народ свой взял с собою;

7 и взял шестьсот колесниц отборных и все колесницы Египетские, и начальников над всеми ими.

8 И ожесточил Господь сердце фараона, царя Египетского, и он погнался за сынами Израилевыми; сыны же Израилевы шли под рукою высокою.

9 И погнались за ними Египтяне, и все кони с колесницами фараона, и всадники, и все войско его, и настигли их расположившихся у моря, при Пи-Гахирофе пред Ваал-Цефоном.

10 Фараон приблизился, и сыны Израилевы оглянулись, и вот, Египтяне идут за ними: и весьма устрашились и возопили сыныИзраилевы к Господу,

11 и сказали Моисею: разве нет гробов в Египте, что ты привел нас умирать в пустыне? что это ты сделал с нами, выведя нас из Египта?

12 Не это ли самое говорили мы тебе в Египте, сказав: оставь нас, пустьмы работаем Египтянам? Ибо лучше быть нам в рабстве уЕгиптян, нежели умереть в пустыне.

13 Но Моисей сказал народу: не бойтесь, стойте – и увидите спасение Господне, которое Он соделает вам ныне, ибо Египтян, которых видите вы ныне, более не увидите во веки;

14 Господь будет поборать за вас, а вы будьте спокойны.

15 И сказал Господь Моисею: что ты вопиешь ко Мне? скажи сынам Израилевым, чтоб они шли,

16 а ты подними жезл твой и простри руку твою на море, и раздели его, и пройдут сыны Израилевы среди моря по суше;

17 Я же ожесточу сердце Египтян, и они пойдут вслед за ними; и покажу славу Мою на фараоне и на всем войске его, на колесницах его и на всадниках его;

18 и узнают Египтяне, что Я Господь, когда покажу славу Мою на фараоне, на колесницах его и на всадниках его.

19 И двинулся Ангел Божий, шедший пред станом Израилевых, и пошел позади их; двинулся и столп облачный от лица их и стал позади их;

20 и вошел в средину между станом Египетским и между станом Израилевых, и был облаком имраком для одних и освещал ночь для других , и не сблизились одни с другими во всю ночь.

21 И простер Моисей руку свою на море, и гнал Господь море сильным восточным ветром всю ночь и сделал море сушею, и расступились воды.

22 И пошли сыны Израилевы среди моря по суше: воды же были им стеною по правую и по левую сторону.

23 Погнались Египтяне, и вошли за ними в средину моря все кони фараона, колесницы его и всадники его.

24 И в утреннюю стражу воззрел Господь на стан Египтян из столпаогненного и облачного и привел в замешательство стан Египтян;

25 и отнял колеса у колесниц их, так что они влекли их с трудом. И сказали Египтяне: побежим от Израильтян, потому что Господь поборает за них против Египтян.

26 И сказал Господь Моисею: простри руку твою на море, и да обратятся воды на Египтян, на колесницы их и на всадников их.

27 И простер Моисей руку свою на море, и к утру вода возвратилась в свое место; а Египтяне бежали на встречу воде . Так потопил Господь Египтян среди моря.

28 И вода возвратилась и покрыла колесницы и всадников всего войскафараонова, вошедших за ними в море; не осталось ни одного из них.

29 А сыны Израилевы прошли по суше среди моря: воды были имстеною по правую и по левую сторону.

30 И избавил Господь в день тот Израильтян из рук Египтян, и увидели Израилевы Египтян мертвыми на берегу моря.

31 И увидели Израильтяне руку великую, которую явил Господь надЕгиптянами, и убоялся народ Господа и поверил Господу и Моисею, рабу Его. Тогда Моисей и сыны Израилевы воспели Господу песнь сию и говорили:

8201. 'And Jehovah caused the sea to go away by a strong east wind' means the agent through which falsity was dispersed. This is clear from the meaning of 'causing to go away' as dispersing; from the meaning of 'the sea' as falsity, 'the sea' here meaning its waters, which are falsities, see 8137, 8138; and from the meaning of 'an east wind' as the agent of destruction, dealt with in 7679, here of the destruction of falsity, thus of the dispersing of it.

6854. 'And I have come down to deliver them from the hand of the Egyptians' means that He would stoop down to them to release them from the power of false factual knowledge, which tries to destroy the truths of the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'coming down' as stooping down, dealt with below; from the meaning of 'to deliver' as to release, for one who releases people from falsities delivers or sets them free; from the meaning of 'the hand' as the power, dealt with in 878, 3387, 3563, 4931-4937, 5544; and from the meaning of 'the Egyptians' as false factual knowledge, which is opposed to the Church's truths, dealt with in 6651, 6679, 6683, and so which tries to destroy them. As regards the Lord's coming down, the situation is that the Lord is said to come or stoop down when He comes to judgement, 1311, and also when He comes down to lower things, in this instance to those belonging to the spiritual Church, who are meant by 'the children of Israel'. For the subject in the internal sense is the way in which those people are molested by falsities, at which time they undergo temptations, and the way in which after that they are set free in order that they may be led into heaven.

[2] But the contents of the internal sense of this verse and of those that follow hold an even deeper mystery which the Church does not yet know about and which must therefore be disclosed. Those who are termed spiritual are people for whom only the understanding part of their mind, not the will part, can be regenerated. In the understanding part of their mind the Lord therefore implants a new will, a will which conforms to the teachings that compose the faith of their Church. These people, that is to say, spiritual ones such as these, were saved solely by the Lord's Coming into the world. The reason why is that the Divine passing through heaven, which was the Divine Human before the Lord's Coming, could not reach them; for to be sure the teachings of their Church were for the most part not truths, and consequently the good in their will was not good either, 6427. Since those people could be saved solely by the Lord's Coming, they could not be raised into heaven before then. They were therefore kept in the meantime on the lower earth, in places there which in the Word are called 'pits'. This lower earth was besieged on every side by the hells where there were falsities, by which they were molested greatly during that time. In spite of this however the Lord protected them. But after the Lord came into the world and made the Human within Himself Divine, He set free those who were in the pits there and raised them to heaven. From these He also formed the spiritual heaven which is the second heaven. This is what is meant by the Lord's descent into the lower parts 1 and by His deliverance of those who had been bound.

[3] This is the even deeper mystery that is described in the internal sense of this verse and of those that follow. See what has been shown already regarding those who are spiritual,

The spiritual are in obscurity so far as the truth and good of faith are concerned, 2708, 2715, 2718, 2831, 2849, 2935, 2937, 3241, 3833, 6289.

Their obscurity is lightened by the Lord's Divine Human, 2716, 4402.

Because they are in obscurity so far as the truth and good of faith are concerned they are under strong attack from the hells; but the Lord is constantly protecting them, 6419.

Those who are spiritual cannot have the will part of their mind regenerated, only the understanding part; and there the Lord forms a new will, 863, 875, 895, 927, 918, 1023, 1043, 1044, 2156, 4328, 4493, 5113.

The spiritual were saved by the Lord's Coming into the world, 2833, 2834, 3969.

[4] Various places in the prophetical part of the Word mention 'the bound' or 'the bound in the pit' and the fact that the Lord delivered them. The bound' should be taken to mean specifically those spoken of just above, as in Isaiah,

I Jehovah have called you in righteousness, and will hold your hand, because I will guard you, and give you to be a covenant of the people, 2 a light of the nations, to open the blind eyes, to bring the bound out of prison, out of the dungeon-house those who sit in darkness. Isaiah 42:6-7.

In the same prophet,

I have guarded you, and I have given you as covenant of the people - to restore the land; to share out the devastated inheritances; to say to the bound, Go out; to those who are in darkness, Reveal yourselves. They will feed along the ways, and on all slopes will their pasture be. Isaiah 49:8-9.

This plainly refers to the Lord. 'The bound' stands in particular for those who were held back on the lower earth until the Lord's Coming, when they were raised up to heaven, and in general for all who are governed by good, yet are held back as though bound by falsities, from which however they wish to break away.

[5] In Zechariah,

Through the blood of your covenant I will let out your bound ones from the pit. Zechariah 9:11.

In Isaiah,

They will surely be gathered together, the bound ones in the pit, and they will be shut up in the dungeon; after a multitude of days they will be visited. Isaiah 24:21.

'The bound ones in the pit' stands for the same people. And in addition to these places the same meaning can be seen from the following words in Isaiah,

Jehovah has anointed Me to bring good tidings to the poor. He has sent Me to bind up the broken in heart; to preach liberty to captives, to those who are bound, to him who is blind; to proclaim the year of Jehovah's good pleasure. Isaiah 61:1-2.

And elsewhere,

The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; those dwelling in the land of the shadow of death, upon them has the light shone out. Isaiah 9:2.
