Giobbe 41:24

Listen to Giobbe 41:24
24 Il cuor suo è sodo come una pietra, E massiccio come un pezzo della macina disotto.

Giobbe 41:24 Meaning and Commentary

Job 41:24

His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of
the nether [millstone].
] Which must be understood not of the substance but of the qualities of it, being bold, courageous, undaunted, and unmerciful; which is true both of the whale and crocodile, and particularly of the crocodile: Aelianus F26 relates of one sort of them that they are unmerciful, though elsewhere F1, he represents them as fearful.

Giobbe 41:24 In-Context

22 La possa alberga nel suo collo, E la doglia tresca davanti a lui.
23 Le polpe della sua carne son compresse; Egli ha la carne addosso soda, e non tremola punto.
24 Il cuor suo è sodo come una pietra, E massiccio come un pezzo della macina disotto.
25 I più forti e valenti hanno paura di lui, quando egli si alza; E si purgano de’ lor peccati, per lo gran fracasso.
26 Nè la spada di chi l’aggiungerà potrà durare, Nè l’asta, nè lo spuntone, nè la corazza:
