Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

7529. 'And sores producing pustules developed, breaking out on man and on beast' means filthiness together with blasphemy, that is a product of interior and exterior evil. This is clear from the meaning of 'sores producing pustules' as falsities together with blasphemy, dealt with above in 7524; and from the meaning of 'man and beast' as interior and exterior evil, also dealt with above, in 7523.
