29 Und es geschah um Mitternacht, da schlug Jehova alle Erstgeburt im Lande Ägypten, von dem Erstgeborenen des Pharao, der auf seinem Throne saß, bis zum Erstgeborenen des Gefangenen, der im Kerker war, und alle Erstgeburt des Viehs.

7890. 'From the first day until the seventh day' means a holy and complete state. This is clear from the meaning of 'seven days' as a holy state, dealt with above in 7885, and also as a complete state, 6508. The same is also meant by 'a week', 1 and 'a week' is a whole period, long or short, from beginning to end, see 2044, 3845.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. A week may describe a period of seven days, seven years, or seven ages.
