7538. 'Rise up in the morning early, and stand before Pharaoh' means raising those engaged in molestation to a higher level of awareness, by being present with them. This is clear from the meaning of 'rising up in the morning early', dealt with in 7435; from the meaning of 'standing before someone' as presence, dealt with in 7527; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who engage in molestation, dealt with in 7107, 7110, 7126, 7141, 7220, 7228.
