This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
like a cedar - As the tempest bends the cedar, so it can move its smooth thick tail [Umbreit]. But the cedar implies straightness and length, such as do not apply to the river horse’s short tail, but perhaps to an extinct species of animal (see on Job 40:15).
stones - rather, “thighs.”
wrapped - firmly twisted together, like a thick rope.
