“Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?”
Did not he who made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb, asserting the fundamental equality of all humans before the Creator, suggesting that Job recognizes servant and master as equally fashioned by God. The making in the womb suggests the act of creation itself. The fashioning by one—God—suggests that all humans participate in the same creative action. The verse establishes the metaphysical basis for moral equality.
