Contextual Overview

¹¹ Or who hath geuen me any thyng aforehande, that I may rewarde him againe? All thinges vnder heauen are myne. ¹² I wyll not keepe secrete his great strength, his power, nor his comely proportion. ¹³ Who can discouer the face of his garment? or who shall come to him with a double brydle? ¹⁴ Who shall open the doores of his face? for he hath horrible teeth round about. ¹⁵ His scales are as it were strong shieldes, so fastened together as if they were sealed: ¹⁶ One is so ioyned to another, that no ayre can come in: ¹⁷ Yea, one hangeth so vpon another, & sticketh so together, that they can not be sundred. ¹⁸ His neesinges make a glistering like fyre, and his eyes lyke the morning shine. ¹⁹ Out of his mouth go torches, and sparkes of fire leape out. ²⁰ And out of his nostrels there goeth a smoke, lyke as out of an hotte seething pot, or caldron.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Darts are counted as stubble,.... Darts being mentioned before, perhaps something else is meant here, and, according to Ben Gersom, the word signifies an engine out of which stones are cast to batter down walls; but these are of no avail against the leviathan;

he laugheth at the shaking of a spear; at him, knowing it cannot hurt him; the crocodile, as Thevenot says g, is proof against the halberd. The Septuagint version is, "the shaking of the pyrophorus", or torch bearer; one that carried a torch before the army, who, when shook, it was a token to begin the battle; which the leviathan being fearless of laughs at it; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Darts are counted as stubble - The word rendered “darts” (תותח tôthâch) occurs nowhere else in the Scriptures. It is from יתח, obsolete root, “to beat with a club.” The word here probably means clubs. Darts and spears are mentioned before, and the object seems to be to enumerate all the usual, instruments of attack. The singular is used here with a plural verb in a collective sense.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 41:29. Darts are counted as stubble — All these verses state that he cannot be wounded by any kind of weapon, and that he cannot be resisted by any human strength.

A young crocodile, seen by M. Maillet, twelve feet long, and which had not eaten a morsel for thirty-five days, its mouth having been tied all that time, was nevertheless so strong, that with a blow of its tail it overturned a bale of coffee, and five or six men, with the utmost imaginable ease! What power then must lodge in one twenty feet long, well fed, and in health!
