Job 38:24

By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth?

Is ... parted - parts, so as to diffuse itself over the whole earth, though seeming to come from one point. Light travels from the sun to the earth, ninety millions of miles, in eight minutes.

Which scattereth - rather, 'And by what way the east wind (personified) spreads (scattereth) itself,' etc. The light and east wind are associated together, as both come from one quarter, and often arise together (Jonah 4:8).
