Of God's great power in the leviathanFirebrands stream from his mouth The imagery of "firebrands" suggests intense, consuming power. In the Hebrew text, the word used here can be associated with burning torches or flames, symbolizing destruction and might. This phrase paints a vivid picture of the Leviathan's formidable nature, emphasizing its fearsome and untamable power. Historically, fire has been a symbol of divine judgment and purification in the Bible, as seen in the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah or the burning bush that Moses encountered. The Leviathan, therefore, is depicted as a creature of immense strength, possibly representing chaos or evil that only God can control. This serves as a reminder of God's sovereignty over all creation, even the most terrifying forces. Fiery sparks shoot forth Parallel Commentaries ...
