# Connecting Statement:
|
|
|
|
Yahweh continues to challenge Job.
|
|
|
|
# Is it at your orders ... nest in high places?
|
|
|
|
Yahweh uses this question to prove that Job is not powerful enough to command the eagles. The implicit answer to this question is "no." Alternate translation: "You are not able to command the eagle to mount up and build his nest in high places." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])

|
# at your orders
|
|
|
|
The abstract noun "orders" can be stated as a verb. Alternate translation: "because you tell it to do so" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-abstractnouns]])
|
|
|
|
# mounts up
|
|
|
|
This means he flies upward. Alternate translation: "flies up into the sky" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])
