6758. 'And he saw an Egyptian man striking a Hebrew man' means alienated factual knowledge trying to destroy the Church's truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'an Egyptian man' as factual knowledge alienated from truth, dealt with in 6692; from the meaning of 'striking' as destroying, here trying to destroy, since falsities are unable to destroy truths; and from the meaning of 'a Hebrew man' as the Church's truth, 'a man' meaning truth, 3134, and 'Hebrew' the Church, 6675, 6684.
