Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 7000

7000. 'And also, behold, he is coming out to meet you' means reception. This is clear from the meaning here of 'coming out to meet' as being presented, ready to receive - to receive Divine Truth represented by 'Moses'. Thus its reception is meant. Angels and spirits who receive Divine Truth going forth from the Lord and take it a stage further are said - when they are presented by the Lord, ready to receive it - 'to come out to meet' it.
