Job 37:15

37:15 Do you know how God commands them,

how he makes lightning flash in his storm cloud?


tn The verb is בְּשׂוּם (bÿsum, from שִׂים [sim, “set”]), so the idea is how God lays [or sets] [a command] for them. The suffix is proleptic, to be clarified in the second colon.

tn Dhorme reads this “and how his stormcloud makes lightning to flash forth?”
