Job 39:28 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the strong place. Upon the crag of the rock - שן סלע shen sela, the tooth of the rock, i.e., some projecting part, whither adventurous man himself dares not follow her.

And the strong place - ומצודה umetsudah. Mr. Good translates this word ravine, and joins it to Job 39:29, thus: "And thence espieth the ravine: her eyes trace the prey afar off."
