Job 26:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 26:8

6 ^aSheol is naked before Him,
And Destruction has no covering.

7 ^aHe stretches out the north over empty space;
He hangs the earth on nothing.

8 ^aHe binds up the water in His thick clouds,
Yet the clouds¹ are not broken under it.

9 He covers the face of His throne,
And spreads His cloud over it.

10 ^aHe drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters,
At the boundary of light and darkness.
