The internal sense in this chapter deals with levels of truth that follow one another in order from the first to the last, arranged into order by good from God. The first level of truth is represented by Moses; the levels of truth that follow on from it in order are represented by the rulers of thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens; and the good from God by which they are arranged into order is represented by Jethro, the father-in-law of Moses.
