8579.“你先前击打河的杖”表曾经驱散虚假所凭借的神性能力。这从“杖”和“河”的含义清楚可知：“杖”是指能力（参看4013，4015，4876，4936，6947，7011，7026节），在此是指神性能力，因为持有这杖的摩西代表神性真理方面的主；“河”，此处即埃及河，是指虚假（6693节）。经上说“你先前击打河的”是为了表示虚假的驱散；因为由此赋予真理的神性能力也表示用来驱散虚假的手段；“从何烈的磐石出来的水”表示所赋予的真理。

8579. And thy rod wherewith thou smotest the river. That this signifies the Divine power by which falsities had been dissipated, is evident from the signification of "a rod," as being power (see n. 4013, 4015, 4876, 4936, 6947, 7011, 7026), here Divine power, because by Moses, whose rod it was, is represented the Lord as to Divine truth; and from the signification of "the river," here the river of Egypt, as being falsity (n. 6693). It is said "wherewith thou smotest the river," in order that the dissipation of falsity may be signified, for by the Divine power whereby truth is given, falsities also are dissipated; the truth which is given is signified by "the water out of the rock in Horeb."
Elliott(1983-1999) 8579
8579. 'And your rod with which you struck the river' means the Divine power by means of which falsities were dispelled. This is clear from the meaning of 'rod' as power, dealt with in 4013, 4015, 4876, 4936, 6947, 7011, 7026, at this point Divine power because 'Moles', whose rod it was, represents the Lord in respect of Divine Truth; and from the meaning of 'the river', in this instance the river of Egypt, as falsity, dealt with in 6693. The words 'with which you struck the river' are used in order to mean the dispelling of falsity; for the Divine power by which truth is supplied is also the means by which falsities are dispelled. The truth which is supplied is meant by 'the water from the rock in Horeb'.

8579. `Et baculum tuum, quo percussisti fluvium': quod significet potentiam Divinam, per quam dissipata sunt falsa, constat ex significatione `baculi' quod sit potentia, de qua n. 4013, 4015, 4876, 4936, 6947, 7011, 7026, hic potentia Divina, quia per `Moschen,' cui baculus, repraesentatur Dominus quoad Divinum Verum, et ex significatione `fluvii,' hic fluvii Aegypti, quod sit falsum, de qua n. (x)6693; `quo percussisti fluvium' dicitur ob causam ut significetur dissipatio falsi, nam per {1}potentiam Divinam, qua verum datur, etiam dissipantur falsa; verum quod datur significatur per `aquam ex petra in Chorebo.' @1 aquam e petra in Chorebo, quae data populo ad bibendum, significatur verum fidei a Domino, per potentiam Divinam, qua illud datur, etiam dissipantur falsa$
