7061. 'And Moses and Aaron went' means the life of both when joined together, that is to say, of truth going forth directly from the Lord's Divine and truth that goes forth in an indirect way. This is clear from the meaning of 'going' as life, dealt with in 3335, 3690, 4882, 5493; from the representation of 'Moses' as truth going forth directly from the Divine, dealt with in 7010, 7054; and from the representation of 'Aaron' as truth going forth from the Lord in an indirect way, dealt with in 7009. So now, since the two men went together, the life of both kinds of truth when joined together is meant.
