This is clear from the meaning of 'the household' as an individual type of good, dealt with immediately above in 7833; from the meaning of 'being too small' as being insufficient; and from the meaning of 'a member of the flock' as innocence, also dealt with just above, in 7832.

7832. 'They shall take for themselves each one a member of the flock' means in respect of innocence. This is clear from the meaning of a lamb or she-goat, to which 'a member of the flock' refers here, as innocence, 'a lamb' innocence in the interior man, 'a she-goat' innocence in the exterior man, 3519.
