SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:29

cuando ponía al mar su estatuto, y a las aguas, que no pasasen su mandamiento; cuando seņalaba los fundamentos de la tierra;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 8:29

Verse 29. When he gave to the
sea his decree ] When he assigned its limits, adjusted its saltness, and proportioned the extent of the surface to the quantity of vapors to be raised from it, for the irrigation of the terrene surface.

The foundations of the earth ] Those irreversible laws by which all its motions are governed; its annual and diurnal rotation, and particularly its centrifugal and centripetal forces; by the former of which it has its annual motion round the sun like all other planets; and by the latter all its particles are prevented from flying off, notwithstanding the great velocity of its motion round its own axis, which causes one thousand and forty-two miles of its equator to pass under any given point in the heavens in the course of a single hour! These are, properly speaking, the foundations of the earth; the principles on which it is constructed, and the laws by which it is governed.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 29. When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment , etc.] A perpetual decree, which never has been altered nor never will: he has placed the sand for the bounds of the sea everywhere, which it cannot pass, though its waves toss, foam, and roar; this is his decreed place, with which he has shut it up, as with doors, bars, and bolts; so that those proud waves may come hitherto and no further, ( Jeremiah 5:22 Job 38:10,11); when he appointed the foundations of the earth ; which are laid on the seas and floods; nay, the earth is hung like a ball in the air upon nothing; and yet its foundations are such as that it shall not be removed; being the purpose and decree, the power and might, of the Lord himself, ( Job 26:7 Psalm 24:2 104:5). Now Christ was present when those were laid, for he was concerned in the laying of them himself, ( Hebrews 1:10). The Lord asks Job where he was then, ( Job 38:4); he was not theft in being, but Christ was.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 22-31 - The Son of
God declares himself to have been engaged in the creation of the world. How able, how fit is the Son of God to be the Saviour of the world, who was the Creator of it! The Son of God was ordained, befor the world, to that great work. Does he delight in saving wretche sinners, and shall not we delight in his salvation?
