Job38:41
41. Who provideth for the Raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat.
Having mentioned the noblest of Brute-creatures, he now mentions one of the most contemptible and loathsome to shew the care of God's Providence over all Creatures both great and small. Which is more remarkable in Ravens because 1. they devour flesh, which it is not easie for them to find. 2 they are greedy and eat very much. 3. they are generally neglected and forsaken by Mankind. 4. their young ones are so soon forsaken by their Dams, that if God did not provide for them in a more than ordinary manner they would be starved to death.
