John Trapp on Job 37:6

Verſe 6. For he ſaith to the ſnow, Be thou on the earth] He commandeth it, and it is done; for together with his word there goeth forth a power. Dixiſſe Dei, eſt feciſſe, Pſal. 147. God giveth ſnow like wooll: Many wonders there are in ſnow: as that it ſhould be made in the loweſt part of the air, and not above where it is coldeſt: that it ſhould ſnow upon the earth, but never upon the ſea, as Pliny ſaith: that ſnow ſhould lye continually, not only upon the Alps, but upon mouth Aetna, where fire flames out: that no ſnow falleth in Egypt; but in Tartaria, a hot Countrey; ſometime it ſnoweth in the heat of Summer: that it ſerves for a cover to preſerve the earths heat, though it ſelf be cold: that being white, it ſhould ſometimes bring forth red worms, &c.

Likewiſe to the ſmall rain, and to the great rain of his ſtrength] Not a drop of rain, whether it come leaſurely or haſtily, but falleth by a divine decree, chap. 28.26. ſee the Note there. The Chaldee Paraphraſt underſtandeth here the Summer and Winter-rains. God ſheweth his ſtrength in a thing ſo weak, and diffluent of it ſelf, that thereby he may overturn and break in pieces the proudeſt of mens ſpirits: for whom alſo if they repent not, he hath a more terrible rain, Pſal, 11.6. overflowing with fire and brimſtone, Ezek. 35.22.
