11 Con agua de lluvia carga las nubes,y lanza sus relámpagos desde ellas;

Job 37:11 Meaning and Commentary

Job 37:11

Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud
By filling it with a multitude of water, it is as it were loaded and made weary with it; and especially by sending it about thus loaded from place to place before discharged, when it becomes as a weary traveller; and then by letting down the water in it, whereby it spends itself like one that is weary; an emblem of ministers that spend and are spent for the good of men: some render it by serenity or fair weather, and so Mr. Broughton,

``by clearness he wearieth the thick vapours;''

by causing a clear sky he dispels them;

he scattereth his bright cloud;
thin light clouds that have nothing in them, and are soon dispersed and come to nothing, and are seen no more; all emblem of such as are clouds without water, ( Jude 1:12 ) ; see ( Zechariah 11:17 ) ; or "he scatters the cloud by his light" F19; by the sun, which dispels clouds and makes a clear sky; an emblem of the blotting out and forgiveness of sins, and of restoring the manifestations of divine love, and the joys of salvation; see ( Isaiah 44:22 ) .

Job 37:11 In-Context

9 De las cámaras del sur viene la tempestad;de los vientos del norte, el frío.
10 Por el aliento de Dios se forma el hieloy se congelan las masas de agua.
11 Con agua de lluvia carga las nubes,y lanza sus relámpagos desde ellas;
12 y estas van de un lado a otro,por toda la faz de la tierra,dispuestas a cumplir sus mandatos.
13 Por su bondad, hace que vengan las nubes,ya sea para castigar o para bendecir.
