Default They the Gods

In Abr 4:

10 And the Gods pronounced the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, pronounced they, Great Waters; and the Gods saw that they were obeyed.


strange phrasing here.

"pronouncing" dry land?

"...the Gods saw that they were obeyed."



Did the elements have a choice?


"...the Gods saw that they were not obeyed."



Hel. 12: 7-8
7 O how great is the nothingness of the children of men; yea, even they are less than the dust of the earth.

8 For behold, the dust of the earth moveth hither and thither, to the dividing asunder, at the command of our great and everlasting God.





We're nothing because we choose NOT to obey?


The dust of the earth is "greater" than we are, because it always chooses to obey?



Hoping to foster some discussion.
