7735. 'And Pharaoh said to him' means flaming anger at this point with [God's] truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying', since what follows is included in that meaning, as flaming anger. For the words that follow 'Pharaoh said to Moses' are, 'Go away from me; take care not to see my face again. For on the day you see my face you will die', words that express anger with God's truth, represented by 'Moses'.
