Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;
Ver. 25. Who hath divided (or derived) a watercourse for the overflowing of waters] That is, the waterclouds, for the pouring out of rain, velut per canales et tubulos, as by pipes and conveyances, wheresoever God pleaseth, men being amazed at those miracles of nature; is it not the Lord alone? He it is who divideth the deluge of waters; as it were, draining them into certain furrows which would otherwise fall down from heaven all at once, and make great spoil here below.
Or a way for the lightning of thunder] Nimbo sonoro, saith Tremellius. See Job 28:6. See Trapp on " Job 28:6 "
