Discovery BoxJob 38:16-18 
Context38:16 Have you gone to the springs that fill the sea, 1
or walked about in the recesses of the deep?
38:17 Have the gates of death been revealed to you? 2
Have you seen the gates of deepest darkness? 3
38:18 Have you considered the vast expanses of the earth?
Tell me, if you know it all!
1 tn Heb “the springs of the sea.” The words “that fill” are supplied in the translation to clarify the meaning of the phrase.
2 tn Heb “uncovered to you.”
3 tn Some still retain the traditional phrase “shadow of death” in the English translation (cf. NIV). The reference is to the entrance to Sheol (see Job 10:21).
