Commentary on Job 40:18
"His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron." The comparison to brass (nechushshah, נְחוּשָׁה) and iron (barzel, בַּרְזֶל) emphasizes skeletal strength. Ancient metallurgy produced the hardest materials humans knew—yet Behemoth's bones surpass these. God designs creatures with specifications exceeding human engineering. This teaches that divine creation employs "materials" and principles humans cannot replicate, demonstrating the Creator's superior wisdom and power.
