Ah, much thanks for pointing this out.  This oversight has now been rectified.

As stated in my comments above, Moses is not necessarily 'striking down'
these unruly shepherds, according to my depiction, but he certainly is
driving them away with a display of violence.  And so it is only appropriate
to label it as such.

(...) I'm sorry for that, Brendan. I overlooked that in English striking down usualy means kill. I meant to say: strikes them to the ground. With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen. (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.build.ancient)
