Job 9:8

Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.

Ver. 8. Which alone spreadeth out the heavens] Without the help or counsel of any other. As God was alone and by himself in making the world, Isaiah 44:24, so he is in ordering it, Job 37:18 Psalms 104:1,2. The Hebrews, as they held with Pythagoras in the point of transanimation; so with Plato in that false opinion of his, that the angels were the movers of the heavens, and the governors of the whole world; whence grew that angel worship amongst them, Colossians 2:18. As God made the heavens alone, even that whole expanse or firmament, Genesis 1:6, the whole region of the air; so he still spreadeth it out as a curtain, which he draweth before the sun and stars, masking and muffling them up with clouds, whensoever he pleaseth.

And treadeth upon the waves of the sea] Or, spurneth, exercising a regiment over the raging surges of the seas, though they seem to swell against him. Thus Job fetcheth evidences of God's power from all places. See Psalms 89:9 .
