Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 6076

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

6076. 'And they said to Pharaoh' means a continuation of the perception. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as perception, dealt with above in 6063; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as the natural in general, dealt with previously. The reason a continuation of the perception by the natural is meant is that the phrase 'they said to Pharaoh' was used just previously, 6074, and now occurs again.
