JOB, Chap. 38. Vers. 19, 20, 21. 19. Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof? 20. That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof. 21. Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? Or because the number of thy days is great?
The Lord having posed Job in the former Context about the depth of the Sea, the darkness of Death, and the vastness of the Earth; here calleth him to an account about the light of the Sun, and the darkness of the Air, in these three verses. As if he had said, If thou knowest the breadth of the whole earth, about which I enquired last of thee; then tell me in what part of the earth doth the light dwell, and where is the place of darkness?
