Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

7286. 'When they spoke to Pharaoh' means when those things were commanded. This is clear from the meaning of 'speaking to' as a command, dealt with in 7240; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who are steeped in falsities and engage in molestation, dealt with in 7107, 7110, 7126, 7141.
