JOB 41:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
Job 41:17Job 41:19
By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
God continues 'His sneezes flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.' This verse introduces more remarkable characteristics of Leviathan: the creature's sneezes produce light, and its eyes are brilliant like dawn. The verse suggests that Leviathan is so powerful that even ordinary bodily functions produce remarkable effects. The sneezes flashing light suggest explosive force and brilliance. The eyes like eyelids of morning suggest intense light and clarity. The verse moves beyond mere physical description to suggest something almost supernatural or divine about the creature.
