 {v.9-10} He is the despair of all opposition; none dare stir him up or stand before him. (Job 38-42:6 by S. Ridout)
 Of what avail is the effort to reform the world, to tame the crocodile? Men may dream and plan, and seek to banish misery from the earth—but even amid its groans, creation mocks at human efforts to subdue its own perverted will. Again, how awful for Job to find such possibilities of evil and rebellion lurking in his heart. (Job 38-42:6 by S. Ridout)
