约伯记 39:6 Meaning and Commentary

Job 39:6

FOOTNOTES:

F14 relates, were many of these creatures, and which he represents as very swift: and Leo Africanus F15 says, great numbers of them are found in deserts, and on the borders of deserts; hence said to be used to the wilderness ( Jeremiah 2:24 ) ;

and the barren land his dwellings;
not entirely barren, for then it could not live there; but comparatively, with respect to land that is fruitful: or "salt land" F16; for, as Pliny F17 says, every place where salt is, is barren.
