“Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?”
Job 39:19 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 39:19
God asks: 'Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?' The verb natan (נָתַן, given) means to give or bestow. Gevurah (גְּבוּרָה, strength) denotes might or power. The phrase 'clothed his neck with thunder' (halvish tsavaro ra'mah, הֲלָבִישׁ צַוָּארוֹ רַעְמָה) poetically describes the horse's mane as thunderous—perhaps referring to sound of galloping or appearance of flowing mane. God's question highlights that He alone creates and endows creatures with abilities. Job cannot create or bestow attributes; he can only observe and admire divine craftsmanship.
