Pulpit CommentaryVerse 20. - Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron; rather, as from a seething pot and rushes; i.e. as from a pot heated by burning rushes.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(20) Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron.--The last word is uncertain: it is the same as was rendered in the Authorised Version "hook" at Job 41:2; and taking the same sense here, we may render, as of a seething pot and rushes: i.e., a pot made hot with rushes.
