Hayo't tayo'y magpakadunong sa kanila; baka sila'y dumami, at mangyari, na, pagka nagkadigma, ay makisanib pati sila sa ating mga kaaway, at lumaban sa atin, at magsilayas sa lupain.
Exodo 1:10
Arcana Coelestia #6656
6656. 'Perhaps they will multiply, and it will be when wars occur' means superior strength if they increase. This is clear from the meaning of 'multiplying' as increasing in regard to truths, dealt with in 43, 55, 913, 983, 2846, 2847; and from the meaning of 'wars' as conflicts involving truths and falsities, which are spiritual conflicts, dealt with in 1664, 2686. And since the words that follow are 'they also will join themselves to our enemies', superior strength in those conflicts is meant.
