Job 28:24
For He looks to the ends of the earth and sees everything under the heavens.
BSB
ASV
For he looketh to the ends of the earth, And seeth under the whole heaven;
KJV
For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven;
He that governs the world is, [1.] Omniscient; for he looks to the ends of the earth, both in place and time; distant ages, distant regions, are under his view. We do not understand our own way, much less can we understand God's way, because we are short-sighted.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
The walk8

Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.
