This is clear from what has gone before regarding the affliction and oppression of the children of Israel, that is, of those who belong to the spiritual Church. These are the things meant by 'what has been done to you in Egypt'. For the fact that these afflictions and acts of oppression mean molestations and endeavours to bring into subjection, see 6663, 6666, 6668, 6670, 6671, 6851, 6852, 6863.
