One language paints a picture (a thousand words) while the other prefers a single word communication form. This why is it almost impossible to translate any Hebrew text into a word for word text in English (or even in Greek, another abstract language),
I get it, but I have told my kids when they were growing up.......Because I said so......usually when they had asked why over and over again.......LOL

And God being the ABSOLUTE authority doesn't have to answer the whys!
