Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

7981. 'And also had not made for themselves provision for the way means that they did not have with them any other support from truth and good - none, that is to say, other than that meant by 'the dough to which no yeast was added', which is the truth of good that has no falsity at all in it, see 7966. This is clear from the meaning of 'provision for the way' as support received from truth and good, dealt with in 5490, 5953.
