17 What is aman, that thou shouldest magnify
him?a and that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him?
  18 And that thou shouldest visit him every morning, and atry
him every moment?
  19 How long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?

17a What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? Perhaps
the strongest argument for God is found in the intricate being of man himself. What is man that he is so
singled out with the bestowal of contemplative intelligence? What other creature is given to even consider
whether there be God? To figure, to calculate, to write, to read, to have the complexity of mind to
explore and discover; why has only man so developed the vast superior exponential dimensions and
magnitudes of the magnified consciousness? The logic is that it is so that man may consider that he is
not only the dominant creature on earth, but that he has the mind and soul power to advance himself
limitlessly into that eternity wherein God, that infinitely superior mind and being does dwell.
