Yahweh returns to the stage with a continuation of the speech inn Job 38, the reigning in of the power of the ocean. Keeping Yahweh's part as many voices, I set it for four part chorus. I see the sea every day and often marvel at these verses, especially in these days of melting ice and rising sea levels. Does this mean that we have to duplicate Yahweh's work in the next 100 years?
