Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

7888. 'For anyone eating anything made with yeast' means whoever makes falsity his own. This is clear from the meaning of 'eating' as making one's own, dealt with in 2187, 2343, 3168, 3513 (end), 3596, 4745; and from the meaning of 'anything made with yeast' as falsity, as above in 7887.
