“Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinews.”
Job notes that God clothed him with skin and flesh and knitted him together with bones and sinews, extending the imagery of God's intimate creative work. The building up of the body from components emphasizes God's attentive formation of the human being. The God who performed this creation now allows it to disintegrate.
