“He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?”
Psalms 94:9 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 94:9
The rhetorical questions employ a fortiori (lesser to greater) reasoning: if God created the ear, He must hear; if He formed the eye, He must see. This logic refutes the delusion of verse 7. The Hebrew yatsar (formed) is used in Genesis 2:7 of God creating humanity, establishing God as Creator who possesses all capacities He gives His creatures—and infinitely more. This verse teaches that God's abilities necessarily exceed those of His creation. The Creator cannot lack what the creature possesses. It's an argument from design to Designer.
