job 37:11 "Also with moisture He loads the thick cloud; He disperses the cloud of His lightning.

< Job 37:10
Job 37:12 >

      11-13. How the thunderclouds are dispersed, or else employed by God, either for correction or mercy.
      by watering--by loading it with water.
      wearieth--burdeneth it, so that it falls in rain; thus "wearieth" answers to the parallel "scattereth" (compare, see on Job 37:9); a clear sky resulting alike from both.
      bright cloud--literally, "cloud of his light," that is, of His lightning. UMBREIT for "watering," &c., translates; "Brightness drives away the clouds, His light scattereth the thick clouds"; the parallelism is thus good, but the Hebrew hardly sanctions it.

JFB.
