Behemah emphasizes the brute aspect to an animal, the fact that they do not have an eternal, living soul like man does. Man is not a higher animal. Evolution is a lie. Animals were not made in the image of God. Animals do not have a living soul.
Man is infinitely higher than and different from the animal kingdom.
The Lord Jesus Christ referred to this fact in Lk. But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. There are two important truths in this passage about animals and man. Second, though, we see that man is infinitely greater in value than the animals because man has an eternal soul. Man will be held accountable for his actions.
