“And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;”
And when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied — accumulation of wealth (livestock, precious metals) compounds the danger of pride. The progression from food to shelter to extensive herds and riches mirrors the natural trajectory of prosperity, each stage more subtly seductive than the last.
