6143. 'And the Egyptians sold, each one his field' means a renunciation and surrender of everything of service to the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'selling' as alienating so that it no longer belongs to that person, dealt with in 4098, 4751, 4758, 5886, thus renouncing and surrendering; and from the meaning of 'field' as doctrine taught by the Church, and in a general sense the Church itself, dealt with in 368, 2971, 3310, 3766. From this it is evident that 'the Egyptians sold, each one his field' means a renunciation and surrender of everything of service to the Church.
