Job 39:6

6 Al cual yo puse casa en la soledad, y sus moradas en la tierra salada.

Job 39:6 Meaning and Commentary

Job 39:6

Whose house I have made the wilderness
Appointed that to be his place of residence, as being agreeable to his nature, at a distance from men, and in the less danger of being brought into subjection by them. Such were the deserts of Arabia; where, as Xenophon


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.

Job 39:6 In-Context

4 Como después sanan los hijos, crecen con el grano; salen y nunca más vuelven a ellas.
5 ¿Quién echó libre al asno montés, y quién soltó sus ataduras?
6 Al cual yo puse casa en la soledad, y sus moradas en la tierra salada.
7 Se ríe de la multitud de la ciudad; no oye las voces del que demanda los peajes.
8 Rebusca los montes para su pasto, y anda buscando todo lo que está verde.
