Excellent teaching! The Hebrews used merism and illism to explain the unexplainable.
Illeism / ˈ ɪ l i. ɪ z əm / (from Latin ille meaning "he, that") is the act of referring to oneself in the third person instead of first person.It is sometimes used in literature as a stylistic device.

Merism. In law, a merism is a figure of speech by which a single thing is referred to by a conventional phrase that enumerates several of its parts or lists several synonyms for the same thing. In rhetoric, a merism is the combination of two contrasting words to refer to an entirety.
