Job 38-From whose womb did the ice emerge,
And who gave birth to the frost of heaven+
30 When the waters are covered as if with stone,
And the surface of the deep waters is frozen solid?+
31 Can you tie the ropes of the Ki?mah constellation* (Pleiades)
Or untie the cords of the Ke?sil constellation?*+ (Orion)
32 Can you lead out a constellation* in its season
Or guide the Ash constellation* along with its sons?
33 Do you know the laws governing the heavens,+
Or can you impose their* authority on the earth-I love this passage. So much to learn in Job 38. I wonder how many people ever questioned HOW Job knew about ice "when the waters are covered as if with stone, And the surface of the deep waters is frozen solid". -Would love to hear some historian explain how a middle easterner near the equator knew enough about icebergs to write about them in such explicit terms.
