7527. 'And stood before Pharaoh' means in the presence of those engaged in molestation. This is clear from the meaning of 'standing before someone' as being in his presence; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who engage in molestation, dealt with in 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142, 7220, 7228.
