Thus the Lord hath showed Job the house and dwelling, as also the liberties and privileges of the wild Ass; in the next ⟨p. 342⟩verse the Lord shows him the food or diet of the wild Ass.
Thus the Lord hath shewed Job the house and dwelling, as also the liberties and priviledges of the wild Ass; in the next ⟨p. 342⟩verse the Lord shews him the food or diet of the wilde Ass.
Vers. 8. The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
This verse tells us where the Lord hath made provision for the wild Ass. The Range (or as some render, the search) of the mountains is his pasture; 1that is, whatsoever he searcheth and findeth out upon the mountains, is his pasture. Job speaketh of wicked men (Chap. 24.5.) after the manner of these wild Asses, finding food in the wilderness for themselves, and for their children.
