Job 41:17 — Meaning and Application

{His} scales {are his} pride, shut up together {as with} a close seal. {scales: Heb. strong pieces of shields}

One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.

They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.

By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes {are} like the eyelids of the morning.

Out of his mouth go burning lamps, {and} sparks of fire leap out.
