Job 38:22 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 38:22

20 That you may take it to its territory,
That you may know the paths to its home?

21 Do you know it, because you were born then,
Or because the number of your days is great?

22 “Have you entered ^athe treasury of snow,
Or have you seen the treasury of hail,

23 ^aWhich I have reserved for the time of trouble,
For the day of battle and war?

24 By what way is light¹ diffused,
Or the east wind scattered over the earth?

25 “Who ^ahas divided a channel for the overflowing water,
Or a path for the thunderbolt,

26 To cause it to rain on a land where there is no one,
A wilderness in which there is no man;

27 ^aTo satisfy the desolate waste,
And cause to spring forth the growth of tender grass?

28 ^aHas the rain a father?
Or who has begotten the drops of dew?

29 From whose womb comes the ice?
And the ^afrost of heaven, who gives it birth?

30 The waters harden like stone,
And the surface of the deep is ^afrozen.
