The 7-limit or the 2.3.5.7 subgroup is the subgroup of just intonation consisting of the intervals reachable by stacking 2/1, 3/2, 5/4, and 7/4.

Zil (from the temperament Godzilla which the zil series serves as a detempering of) is a series of 7-limit JI scales created from a generator sequence. The most discussed of the zil scales is zil[14] which is chiral depending on the chirality of the interleaved 5-limit zarlino copies:
