Job 38:19

Context

38:19 “In what direction 1  does light reside,

and darkness, where is its place,

Job 38:24

Context

38:24 In what direction is lightning 2  dispersed,

or the east winds scattered over the earth?

1 tn The interrogative with דֶרֶךְ (derekh) means “in what road” or “in what direction.”

2 tn Because the parallel with “light” and “east wind” is not tight, Hoffmann proposed ‘ed instead, “mist.” This has been adopted by many. G. R. Driver suggests “parching heat” (“Problems in the Hebrew text of Job,” VTSup 3 [1955]: 91-92).
