“He directeth it under the whole heaven, etc.] His voice of thunder, which rolls from one end of the heaven to the other: he charges the clouds with it, and directs both it and them where they shall go and discharge; what tree, house, or man, it shall strike; and where the rain shall fall when the clouds burst: yet Pliny f1267 atheistically calls thunder and lightning chance matters.

The earth was spoken of as an expanse or plain that had corners or boundaries (see Isaiah 11:12, note; Isaiah 24:16, note; Isaiah 42:5, note), and the meaning here is, that God spread the…”

“Directeth - His voice: which he guideth like an arrow to the mark, that it may do that work for which he sends it. Job 37:4”

“He: Psa 77:13, Psa 97:4; Mat 24:27; Rev 11:19 lightning: Heb. light ends: Heb. wings, Job 38:13; Isa 11:12 \*marg. Job 37:4”
