Verse 1 is found in chapter 39 of Job. The divine questions focus on wild animals and creatures living beyond human control. Mountain goats, deer, wild donkeys, and wild oxen are mentioned. Creation includes forms of life whose behavior is not organized around human needs. This challenges any assumption that the universe can be understood solely from the human perspective.
