He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.
The horse rushing fiercely at the trumpet sound stands among the divine questions that unveil the mysteries of God in nature, mysteries that persons of the greatest intellect cannot understand and that the most profound scholar cannot answer. The question was never posed to draw out an answer, but to direct attention to the deep mysteries of God. Its purpose is to teach that human wisdom is limited, and that within the surroundings of daily life there are many things beyond the comprehension of finite beings. It therefore commands faith, requiring acknowledgment of God as much from what He does not reveal of Himself as from what lies open to limited comprehension. For beyond all searching and inquiring and learning there still remains an infinity beyond.
