The verse seems to mean:

Which is the way to where the light is parted,

And the east wind spreadeth over the earth?

The phrase in clause first is the same as in Job 38:19. The words may mean by which way, or road, is light parted? The "light" was already referred to in Job 38:19, and some consider the word to mean lightninghere. This, however, comes from above and is spoken of in Job 38:25. More probably the reference is to the wonderful diffusion of light over the whole earth, and the query concerns the way or path by which this takes place. Such a path appears to lie in the East, from whence also the stormy wind spreads over the earth; hence the two are brought into connexion. Job, of course, knows the way along which this diffusion of light and wind takes place.
