29 A club is regarded as stubble, and he laughs at the whirring of a javelin.[a]
30 His undersides are jagged potsherds, spreading the mud like a threshing sledge.[b]
31 He makes the depths seethe like a caldron; he makes the sea like an ointment jar.
32 He leaves a shining wake behind him;[c] one would think the deep had white hair!
33 He has no equal on earth- a creature devoid of fear![d]
34 He surveys everything that is haughty; he is king over all the proud beasts.[e][f]

Job 41:29-34 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO JOB 41

A large description is here given of the leviathan, from the difficulty and danger of taking it, from whence it is inferred that none can stand before God, Job 41:1-10; from the several parts of him, his face, teeth, scales, eyes, mouth and neck, flesh and heart, Job 41:11-24; and from various wonderful terrible things said of him, and ascribed to him, Job 41:25-34.
