8275. 'Pharaoh's chariots and his army He has thrown into the sea' means the particular and the general falsities arising from evil of those belonging to the Church who led a life of evil in it, and the fact that at His presence those falsities have cast themselves into the hells. This is clear from the meaning of 'chariots' as falsities, dealt with in 8146, 8148, 8215, at this point particular falsities since the word 'army', meaning general falsities, is also used (for the meaning of 'army' as falsities, see 3448, 8138, 8146, 8148); from the representation of 'Pharaoh' and of 'the Egyptians' as those belonging to the Church who uphold separated faith and lead a life of evil, and are therefore steeped in utter falsities arising from evil, dealt with in 7926, 8132, 8135, 8138, 8148; and from the meaning of 'the sea', the Sea Suph at this point, as the hell where those steeped in those falsities are, dealt with in 8099, 8137, 8148, so that 'He has thrown into the sea' means that He has cast into hell, in the internal sense that they have cast themselves into it simply at the presence of the Lord, see 8265. From all this it is evident that 'Pharaoh's chariots and his army He has thrown into the sea' means that the particular and the general falsities arising from evil of those belonging to the Church who led a life of evil in it have cast themselves at the presence of the Lord into the hells.
