SEV Biblia, Chapter 38:40
cuando están echados en las cuevas, o se están en sus guaridas para acechar?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 38:40
Verse 40. When they couch in their dens ] Before they are capable of trusting themselves abroad. Abide in the covert ] Before they are able to hunt down the prey by running. It is a fact that the young lions, before they have acquired sufficient strength and swiftness, lie under cover, in order to surprise those animals which they have not fleetness enough to overtake in the forest; and from this circumstance the µyrypk kephirim, "young lions, or lions' whelps," have their name: the root is rpk caphar, to cover or hide. See the note on chap. iv. 11, where six different names are given to the lion, all expressing some distinct quality or state.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 25-41 - Hitherto God had put questions to Job to show him his ignorance; no God shows his weakness. As it is but little that he knows, he ought no to arraign the Divine counsels; it is but little he can do, therefor he ought not to oppose the ways of Providence. See the all-sufficienc of the Divine Providence; it has wherewithal to satisfy the desire of every living thing. And he that takes care of the young ravens certainly will not be wanting to his people. This being but on instance of the Divine compassion out of many, gives us occasion to think how much good our God does, every day, beyond what we are awar of. Every view we take of his infinite perfections, should remind us of his right to our love, the evil of sinning against him, and our need of his mercy and salvation __________________________________________________________________
