I am a brother to jackals and a companion to ostriches, employing animal metaphors to depict Job's current isolation and degradation, suggesting he has been relegated to the company of desolate creatures. The brotherhood to jackals suggests identification with creatures of desolation and night. The companionship with ostriches suggests fellowship with birds that flee human contact. The verse employs zoological metaphor to express complete marginalization and degradation.
