job 30:22 Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to ride upon it, and dissolvest my substance. - Free Bible Online

job 30:22 "Thou dost lift me up to the wind [and] cause me to ride; And Thou dost dissolve me in a storm.


      22. liftest . . . to wind--as a "leaf" or "stubble" (Job 13:25). The moving pillars of sand, raised by the wind to the clouds, as described by travellers, would happily depict Job's agitated spirit, if it be to them that he alludes.
      dissolvest . . . substance--The marginal Hebrew reading (Keri), "my wealth," or else "wisdom," that is, sense and spirit, or "my hope of deliverance." But the text (Chetib) is better: Thou dissolvest me (with fear, Ex 15:15) in the crash (of the whirlwind; see on Job 30:14) [MAURER]. UMBREIT translates as a verb, "Thou terrifiest me."
