2381. Verse 11 And the men who were at the door of the house they struck with blindness, both small and great; and these strove to find the door (janua).

'The men who were at the door of the house' means rational concepts and matters of doctrine deriving from these by means of which violence is offered to good stemming from charity. 'They struck with blindness' means they were completely filled with falsities. 'Both small and great' means in particular and in general. 'And these strove to find the door' means to the point at which they were unable to see any truth that would lead to good.
