When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.

Job 41:25 (KJV)

Commentary on Job 41:25

"When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves." When Leviathan rises, even mighty warriors (elim, אֵלִים) fear and "purify themselves" (possibly "err/miss the mark" in panic). This demonstrates that human might, however impressive against other humans, becomes nothing before overwhelming power. This teaches humility—human strength is relative, impressive only within limited contexts. Before truly overwhelming realities, all human distinctions dissolve.
