JOB CHAPTER 37



God’s great works, lightning, thunder, snow, rain, winds, frosts, clouds, and his providences towards nations, whether for correction or mercy, call for reverence and fear, Job_37:1-14; as also his unsearchable wisdom in them, Job_37:15-18. We are ignorant, and cannot speak to God; but must fear him, who respecteth none, Job_37:19-24.



At this also, of which I have already spoken, and am now to speak further, to wit, the thunder, which hath ofttimes made even atheists and other wicked men to tremble with a fear of horror, and good men to tremble with a fear of reverence, and a due dread of God’s judgments.



Is moved out of his place; leaps and beats excessively, as if it would leap out of my body.
