“Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?”
Job 38:29 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 38:29
"Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?" Continuing the parentage theme, God uses feminine imagery—womb (beten, בֶּטֶן) and gendering (yalad, יָלָד). Ice and frost lack natural parents; God alone produces them. The mixing of masculine (fathering) and feminine (womb) imagery for God's creative work shows both are metaphors pointing to the One who transcends gender categories. This challenges any limitation of God to human categories while affirming He is the sole source of all creation.
