1 Y apacentando Moisés las ovejas de Jetro su suegro, sacerdote de Madián, llevó las ovejas detrás del desierto, y vino a Horeb, monte de Dios.

2 Y se le apareció el Angel del SEÑOR en una llama de fuego en medio de un zarzal; y él miró, y vio que el zarzal ardía en fuego, y el zarzal no se consumía.

3 Entonces Moisés dijo: Iré yo ahora, y veré esta grande visión, por qué causa el zarzal no se quema.

4 Y viendo el SEÑOR que iba a ver, lo llamó Dios de en medio del zarzal, y dijo: ¡Moisés, Moisés! Y él respondió: Heme aquí.

5 Y dijo: No te llegues acá; quita tus zapatos de tus pies, porque el lugar en que tú estás, tierra santa es .

6 Y dijo: Yo soy el Dios de tu padre, Dios de Abraham, Dios de Isaac, Dios de Jacob. Entonces Moisés cubrió su rostro, porque tuvo miedo de mirar a Dios.

7 Y dijo el SEÑOR: Bien he visto la aflicción de mi pueblo que está en Egipto, y he oído su clamor a causa de sus exactores; por lo cual yo he entendido sus dolores.

8 Y he descendido para librarlos de mano de los egipcios; yo los sacaré de aquella tierra a una tierra buena y ancha, a tierra que fluye leche y miel, a los lugares del cananeo, del heteo, del amorreo, del ferezeo, del heveo, y del jebuseo.

9 El clamor, pues, de los hijos de Israel ha venido ahora delante de mí, y también he visto la opresión con que los egipcios los oprimen.

10 Ven por tanto ahora, y te enviaré al Faraón, para que saques a mi pueblo, los hijos de Israel, de Egipto.

11 Entonces Moisés respondió a Dios: ¿Quién soy yo, para que vaya al Faraón, y saque de Egipto a los hijos de Israel?

12 Y él le respondió: Porque yo seré contigo; y esto te será por señal de que yo te he enviado: luego que hubieres sacado este pueblo de Egipto, serviréis a Dios sobre este monte.

13 Y dijo Moisés a Dios: He aquí que llego yo a los hijos de Israel, y les digo: El Dios de vuestros padres me ha enviado a vosotros; y si ellos me preguntan: ¿Cuál es su nombre? ¿Qué les responderé?

14 Y respondió Dios a Moisés: YO SOY El que Soy. Y dijo: Así dirás a los hijos de Israel: YO SOY (YHWH ) me ha enviado a vosotros.

15 Y dijo más Dios a Moisés: Así dirás a los hijos de Israel: El SEÑOR Dios de vuestros padres, el Dios de Abraham, Dios de Isaac y Dios de Jacob, me ha enviado a vosotros. Este es mi Nombre para siempre, y este es mi memorial por todos los siglos.

16 Ve, y junta los ancianos de Israel, y diles: El SEÑOR Dios de vuestros padres, el Dios de Abraham, de Isaac, y de Jacob, se me apareció, diciendo: De cierto os he visitado, y visto lo que se os hace en Egipto;

17 y he dicho: Yo os haré subir de la aflicción de Egipto a la tierra del cananeo, y del heteo, y del amorreo, y del ferezeo, y del heveo, y del jebuseo, a una tierra que fluye leche y miel.

18 Y oirán tu voz; e irás tú, y los ancianos de Israel, al rey de Egipto, y le diréis: El SEÑOR Dios de los hebreos, nos ha encontrado; por tanto nosotros iremos ahora camino de tres días por el desierto, para que sacrifiquemos al SEÑOR nuestro Dios.

19 Mas yo sé que el rey de Egipto no os dejará ir sino por mano fuerte.

20 Pero yo extenderé mi mano, y heriré a Egipto con todas mis maravillas que haré en él, y entonces os dejará ir.

21 Y yo daré a este pueblo gracia en los ojos de los egipcios, para que cuando os partiereis, no salgáis vacíos;

22 sino que demandará cada mujer a su vecina y a su huéspeda vasos de plata, vasos de oro, y vestidos, los cuales pondréis sobre vuestros hijos y vuestras hijas, y despojaréis a Egipto.

7024. 'And caused them to ride on an ass' means the ideas which would be of service to the new kind of intelligence. This is clear from the meaning of 'riding' as ideas that belong to the understanding, here the ideas which would be of service to the new kind of intelligence which will enhance the life of those who belong to the spiritual Church, 7016 (the reason why 'riding' (equitare) means those ideas is that 'a horse' (equus) means the power of understanding - see the matters dealt with in 2761, 2762, 3217, 5321, 6534); and from the meaning of 'an ass' as truth that is of service, in this instance to the new kind of intelligence, dealt with in 2781, 5741, and also as factual knowledge, 5492.

Arcana Coelestia#2761

2761. That 'a white horse' means an understanding of the Word as regards its interior contents, or what amounts to the same, as regards the internal sense of the Word is clear from the meaning of 'a horse' as the understanding part of the mind. In prophetical parts of the Word 'a horse' and 'a rider' are referred to many times, but up to now nobody has known that 'a horse' means the understanding part of the mind, and 'a rider' one who has intelligence, as in the prophecy of Jacob, who by then was Israel, concerning Dan,

Dan will be a serpent on the road, a darting serpent on the path, biting the horse's heels; and its rider will fall backwards. I am awaiting Your salvation, O Jehovah. Genesis 49:17-18.

'A serpent' means one who reasons about Divine arcana on the basis of sensory evidence and factual knowledge, see 195. 'Road' and 'path' mean truth, 627, 2333, 'heel' means the lowest part of the natural, 259, 'horse' an understanding of the Word, and 'rider' one who teaches. From this it is evident what these prophetical words mean, namely that one who reasons about the truths of faith on the basis of sensory evidence and factual knowledge is interested solely in the lowest things belonging to the natural world and so believes nothing, which is 'falling backwards'. And this is why the words 'I am awaiting Your salvation, O Jehovah' are added.

[2] In Habakkuk,

O God, You ride on Your horses, Your chariots are salvation. You made Your horses to tread in the sea. Habakkuk 3:8, 15.

Here 'horses' stands for Divine Truths that are in the Word, 'chariots' for doctrine drawn from them, 'the sea' for cognitions, 28, 2120. And since these belong to an understanding of the Word from God, it is said, 'You made Your horses to tread in the sea'. Here, as in the quotation above from the Book of Revelation, horses are attributed to God, but this attribution would not be possible if they did not have such a meaning.

[3] In David,

Sing to God, sing praises to His name; exalt Him who rides on the clouds by His name lain. Psalms 68:4.

'Riding on the clouds' stands for an understanding of the Word as regards its interior contents or internal sense; for 'clouds' means the Word in the letter which has the internal sense within it - see the Preface to Genesis 18, where the meaning of 'the Lord's coming in the clouds of heaven with power and glory' is explained.

[4] In the same author,

Jehovah bowed the heavens and came down; and thick darkness was under His feet, and He rode on a cherub. Psalms 18:9-10.

'Thick darkness' here stands for clouds, 'riding on a cherub' for the Lord's providence preventing man's entering of himself into the mysteries of faith that are in the Word, 308. In Zechariah,

On that day there will be on the horse-bells, Holiness to Jehovah. Zechariah 14:20. 'The horse-bells' stands for an understanding of the spiritual things of the Word, which are holy.

[5] In Jeremiah,

There will enter through the gates of this city kings and princes seated on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their princes, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And this city will be inhabited for ever. Jeremiah 17:25-26; 22:4.

'The city of Jerusalem' stands for the Lord's spiritual kingdom and Church. 'Kings' stands for truths, 1672, 2015, 2069, 'princes' for the first and foremost commandments of truth, 1482, 2089, 'David' for the Lord, 1888, 'men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem' for those in whom there exists good that flows from love, charity, and faith, 2268, 2451, 2712. Thus 'riding in chariots and on horses' stands for being furnished with the doctrine of truth received from an internal understanding of the Word.

[6] In Isaiah, Then will you take delight in Jehovah and I will cause you to ride over the high places of the earth and cause you to eat the heritage of Jacob. Isaiah 58:14.

'Riding over the high places of the earth' stands for intelligence. In David,

A love song. Gird your sword on your thigh, O mighty one, [gird on] your glory and majesty. And in your majesty go on, ride on the word of truth, and of the meekness of righteousness. And your right hand will teach you marvellous things. Psalms 45:1, 3-4.

'Riding on the word of truth' stands plainly for intelligence based on truth, 'on the word of the meekness of righteousness' for wisdom based on good.

[7] In Zechariah,

On that day, said Jehovah, I will strike every horse with panic, and its rider with madness. And on the house of Judah I will open My eyes, and every horse of the peoples I will strike with blindness. Zechariah 12:4.

Here also 'horse' plainly stands for the understanding which was to be 'stricken with panic and blindness', and 'rider' for him with intelligence who was to be 'stricken with madness'. In Hosea,

Take away all iniquity and accept that which is good, and we will render the praises 1 of our lips. Asshur will not save us, we will not ride on horses, and we will no more say Our God' to the work of our hands. Hosea 14:2-3.

'Asshur' stands for reasoning, 119, 1186, 'horse' for self-intelligence. 'Horse' and 'rider' are referred to in very many other places besides these.
