This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Job_41:9 Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not [one] be cast down even at the sight of him?
Ver. 9. Behold, the hope of him is in vain] Heb. is lying. A man may promise himseff or others to take the whale, but how or when will he effect it? It is a misery to lie languishing at Hope’s Hospital, and after all to be disappointed; to labour all night, and take nothing, &c.
Shall not one be cast down at the sight of him?] Surely there is cause enough to be cast down, if he be so big and dreadful to behold as is reported. {{See Trapp on "Job_41:1"}
