7960. 'Take both your flocks and your herds' means interior forms and exterior forms of the good of charity. This is clear from the meaning of 'flocks' as interior forms of the good of charity, and from the meaning Of 'herds' as exterior forms of the good of charity, both of which are dealt with in 2566, 5913, 6048.
