SEV Biblia, Chapter 36:29
¿Si entenderá también los extendimientos de las nubes, y los bramidos de su tienda?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 36:29
Verse 29. Can any understand the spreadings of the clouds ] Though the vapor appear to be fortuitously raised, and subject, when suspended in the atmosphere, to innumerable accidents, to different winds and currents which might drive it all to the sandy deserts, or direct its course so that it should fall again into the great deep from which it has been exhaled, without watering and refreshing the earth; yet so does the good and wise providence of God manage this matter, that every part of the arable terrene surface receives an ample supply; and in every place, where requisite, it may be truly said that "The rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and water the earth, and cause it to bring forth and bud, that it may minister seed to the sower, and bread to the eater." In Egypt, where there is little or no rain, the earth is watered by the annual inundation of the Nile; there, because this system of evaporation is not necessary, it does not exist. Who can account for this economy? How are these clouds so judiciously and effectually spread through the atmosphere, so as to supply the wants of the earth, of men, and of cattle? I ask, with Elihu, "Who can understand the spreadings of these clouds?" And I should like to see that volunteer in the solution of paradoxes who would step forward and say, I am the man. The noise of his tabernacle? ] By the tabernacle we may understand the whole firmament or atmospheric expansion; the place where the Almighty seems more particularly to dwell; whence he sends forth the rain of his strength, and the thunder of his power. The noise must refer to the blowing of winds and tempests. or to the claps, peals, and rattling of thunder, by means of the electric fluid.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 24-33 - Elihu endeavours to fill Job with high thought of God, and so to persuade him into cheerful submission to his providence. Man may se God's works, and is capable of discerning his hand in them, which the beasts are not, therefore they ought to give him the glory. But whil the worker of iniquity ought to tremble, the true believer shoul rejoice. Children should hear with pleasure their Father's voice, eve when he speaks in terror to his enemies. There is no light but ther may be a cloud to intercept it. The light of the favour of God, the light of his countenance, the most blessed light of all, even tha light has many a cloud. The clouds of our sins cause the Lord to his face, and hinder the light of his loving-kindness from shining on ou souls __________________________________________________________________
