Jó 41:20 Meaning and Commentary

Job 41:20

Out of his nostrils goeth forth smoke, as [out] of a seething
pot or caldron.
] In which flesh or anything else is boiling. It is observed that there is a likeness between the crocodile and the river horse, and particularly in their breathing F21: and of the former it is remarked F23, that its nostrils are very large and open, and that they breathe out a fiery smoke, as out of a furnace.

Jó 41:20 In-Context

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.
20 Dos seus narizes procede fumaça, como de uma panela que ferve, e de juncos que ardem.
21 O seu hálito faz incender os carvões, e da sua boca sai uma chama.
22 No seu pescoço reside a força; e diante dele anda saltando o terror.
