Job 37:16 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The balancings; how God doth as it were weigh and suspend the clouds in balances; so that although they are ponderous and flail of water, yet they are by his power kept up in the thin air from falling down upon us in spouts and floods, as sometimes they have done, and generally would do, if not overruled by a higher Providence. Which is perfect in knowledge; who exactly knows the weight. These are effects and evidences of his infinite power and knowledge.

Job 37:16

16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge?
