Commentary on Job 40:24

"He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares." Behemoth cannot be caught by watching (be'eynav, בְּעֵינָיו, "with his eyes") or snares through the nose. Human hunting methods fail against this creature. Only God controls Behemoth. This demonstrates that some aspects of creation remain beyond human dominion, keeping humans humble. We are not given mastery over everything—some things remain exclusively under God's authority, teaching dependence and trust.
