Job notes that God will not withdraw his anger and the helpers of Rahab were subdued beneath him, using the myth of divine triumph over the sea monster to suggest divine invulnerability. The reference to Rahab (the chaos serpent) and its helpers emphasizes that even the cosmic forces of chaos are subject to divine control. The subduing of chaos becomes a metaphor for the complete subjection of all opposition.
