3 The ox [showr] knoweth [yada`] his owner, [qanah] and the
ass [chamowr] his master's [ba`al] crib: ['ebuwc] but Israel [Yisra'el] doth not know, [yada`] my
people [`am] doth not consider. [biyn] KJV-Interlinear
3 "An
ox knows its owner, And a donkey its master's manger, But Israel does not know,
My people do not understand." NASB
People have souls. People have brains with intellectual capabilities of logic and reason. People have far better potential and abilities to differentiate the truth from the lies of the world. People have far more perceptive abilities in life and can plan and prepare for the unseen, or for what they know or believe is coming.
Animals on the other hand, possess none of these advanced characteristics, possessing only the wits of natural instinct that God has given them.
And yet, the lowly animal knows from where it comes, and to whom it belongs, and how to get out of danger or even out of bad weather. Animals can prepare out of instinct and not much more than that, yet they cope with life and survive throughout the ages, without intellect, without technology, without sophisticated plans and means.
The ox is a strong worker, yet dumb. The donkey is dull and stupid.
And even these two lowly animals show more loyalty and common sense toward their masters, than do people toward God, who created them.
Man is nothing more than an essence of life inserted into dust, yet man feels nearly invincible and total control over their own life and future. Presuming that no one and nothing is needed to help them get along in life or in history.
Man believes that he is here by accident yet destined to rule the galaxies. And man has not even yet learned to control his own planet.
With all of the proofs that exist right before our own eyes, with all of the repetitions of life and death in our history, very few of the trillions of people born into life, have figured out what life is all about. And fewer still know that God is there carrying the weight of history lest humanity would have failed long ago.
The high and the mighty rule and walk through life in their arrogance, while the simplest of animals have in fact, more use of sense than God gave to man.
God has a plan for each persons life. That plan is a perfect plan and is designed to bring out the best possible destiny for each individual.
Man on the other hand tries to make events fit into self-prophecy, rather than discovering true prophecy as and after, its events unfold.
Animals know little if anything about the tomorrows that lie ahead, and yet they suffer no delusions about who and what they are.
Man has all sorts of advantages over animals, and yet man can't seem to get even his own history sorted out.
