6126. 'And for the livestock of the flock and for the livestock of the herd' means forms of the good of truth, interior and exterior ones. This is clear from the meaning of 'the flock' as interior forms of good, and from the meaning of 'the herd' as exterior forms, both dealt with in 5913. And since forms of the good of truth are meant, the expression 'the livestock of the flock and the livestock of the herd' is used, 'livestock' being the good of truth, 6016, 6045, 6049.
