Jó 41:17

Listen to Jó 41:17
17 Umas �s outras se ligam; tanto aderem entre si, que não se podem separar.

Jó 41:17 Meaning and Commentary

Job 41:17

They are joined one to another
One scale to another, or "a man in his brother" F8: which may seem to favour the notion of the whale's teeth in the sockets, which exactly answer to one another; but the next clause will by no means agree with them;

they stick together, that they cannot be sundered:
whereas they easily be, at least by the creature itself; but the scales of a crocodile are so closely joined and sealed together, that there is no parting them.


FOOTNOTES:

F8 (whyxab vya) "vir in fratre suo"; Montanus.

Jó 41:17 In-Context

15 As suas fortes escamas são o seu orgulho, cada uma fechada como por um selo apertado.
16 Uma � outra se chega tão perto, que nem o ar passa por entre elas.
17 Umas �s outras se ligam; tanto aderem entre si, que não se podem separar.
18 Os seus espirros fazem resplandecer a luz, e os seus olhos são como as pestanas da alva.
19 Da sua boca saem tochas; faíscas de fogo saltam dela.
