6684. 'Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women' means that the Church's factual knowledge is not like the factual knowledge which is at odds with it. This is clear from the meaning of 'the Hebrew women' as things that belong to the Church, dealt with in 5136, 5236, 6673, 6675; and from the meaning of 'the Egyptian women' as such things as are at odds with things belonging to the Church. These things are known facts, as is evident from what has gone before and also from the meaning of 'Egypt' as factual knowledge, 6638, here facts at odds with the Church's true factual knowledge. For the meaning of 'women' as things belonging to the Church, see 252, 253.
