John Trapp on Job 26:8

Verſe 8. He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds] Heb. Clouds, which yet have their name from thickneſſe, becauſe they ariſe from Aire condenſed. In theſe God bottleth up the rain, and there keepeth it in by main ſtrength (as the word ſignifieth) though thoſe veſſels are as thin, and thinner then the liquor that is contained in them. This duly weighed, were enough to convince an Atheiſt, eſpecially if he conſider how.

The cloud is not rent under them] And ſo cauſeth a cataclyſme to drown the earth, as ſometimes at ſea eſpecially, great hurt is done this way among ſhips, by a ſpout, as Mariners call it, the Greeks [non-Latin text not transcribed], and the Dutch Ein Wolckenbruch, or Heavenbreach; viz. when clouds cleave aſunder, and diſcharge themſelves all at once, for a great miſchief to mankind. Now that God thus binds up theſe heavy vapours, and keeps them in the clouds as a ſtrong man in a Cobweb, till brought by the winds whitherſoever he pleaſeth to appoint them, they drop upon the earth buy little and little, to make it fruitful; this is a wonderful work of God, and ſhould bring us to the knowledge of his Power, Wiſdom and Goodneſſe, Rom. 1.19, 20. ſee Job. 38.37. Jer. 5.22.
