SEV Biblia, Chapter 26:12
El rompe el mar con su potencia, y con su entendimiento hiere la hinchazón suya .
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 26:12
Verse 12. He divideth the sea with his power ] Here is a manifest allusion to the passage of the Red Sea by the Israelites, and the overthrow of Pharaoh and his host, according to the opinion of the most eminent critics. He smiteth through the proud. ] bhr Rahab, the very name by which Egypt is called Isa. li. 9, and elsewhere. Calmet remarks: "This appears to refer only to the passage of the Red Sea, and the destruction of Pharaoh.
Were we not prepossessed with the opinion that Job died before Moses, every person at the first view of the subject must consider it in this light." I am not thus prepossessed. Let Job live when he might, I am satisfied the Book of Job was written long after the death of Moses, and not earlier than the days of Solomon, if not later. The farther I go in the work, the more this conviction is deepened; and the opposite sentiment appears to be perfectly gratuitous.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 5-14 - Many striking instances are here given of the wisdom and power of God in the creation and preservation of the world. If we look about us, to the earth and waters here below, we see his almighty power. If we consider hell beneath, though out of our sight, yet we may conceive the discoveries of God's power there. If we look up to heaven above, we se displays of God's almighty power. By his Spirit, the eternal Spiri that moved upon the face of the waters, the breath of his mouth, P 33:6, he has not only made the heavens, but beautified them. By redemption, all the other wonderful works of the Lord are eclipsed; an we may draw near, and taste his grace, learn to love him, and walk with delight in his ways. The ground of the controversy between Job and the other disputants was, that they unjustly thought from his affliction that he must have been guilty of heinous crimes. They appear not to have duly considered the evil and just desert of original sin; nor di they take into account the gracious designs of God in purifying his people. Job also darkened counsel by words without knowledge. But his views were more distinct. He does not appear to have alleged his personal righteousness as the ground of his hope towards God. Yet what he admitted in a general view of his case, he in effect denied, whil he complained of his sufferings as unmerited and severe; that very complaint proving the necessity for their being sent, in order to his being further humbled in the sight of God __________________________________________________________________
