Commentary on Job 6:16

Job elaborates: 'Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow is hid.' The imagery describes streams dark with ice melt and hidden snow—suggesting abundance. Job's friends appeared to have deep reserves of wisdom and comfort (like snow-fed streams), but this proved illusory. The Hebrew 'qadar' (blackish/dark) may suggest troubled waters, foreshadowing the contaminated counsel that flows from them. Appearances of wisdom don't guarantee actual help.
