Bible Comments

And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,

Brake up for - i:e., appointed it. Shores are generally broken and abrupt cliffs. The Greek [aktee, from agnumi] for shore means a broken place. I broke off or measured off for it my limit - i:e., the limit which I thought fit (Job 26:10).
