Job 29:6

The second, though a less, element of his happiness was his overflowing abundance.

when I washed my steps Or, when my steps were washed in butter, i. e. bathed a figure for the overflowing abundance amidst which he walked.

the rock poured me out As marg., poured out with meor beside me. The unfruitful rock poured out rivers of oil beside him; his blessings were so abundant that they came unsought and seemed above nature.
