7644. 'And they will cover the surface of the land' means the lowest levels of the natural mind. This is clear from the meaning of 'the surface' as the external and so lowest levels; and from the meaning of 'the land', here 'the land of Egypt', as the natural mind, dealt with in 5276, 5278, 5280, 5188, 5301.
