4372. 'And because I have everything' means his spiritual riches. This is clear from the meaning of 'everything he has' in this case as his spiritual riches. For this 'everything' was made up of 'flocks and herds', by which goods and truths are meant, as shown already; and those goods and truths are called spiritual riches. 'Spiritual riches' serves to describe truth, while 'the uses' to which such riches are put are descriptive of good.
