Job 41:18 (c) This is a poetical description of an unknown animal, and the words are GOD's words. He probably is telling us that the opening of the eyes by the raising of the eyelids of this monster is comparable to the rising of the sun in the morning which illuminates our way, and enables us to live intelligently.

Psalm 11:4 (b) The expression of the eyes tells a wonderful story to those who watch the eyes. Since the Lord guides us with His eye, as in Psalm 32:8, we need to keep our eyes upon His eyes to see what is His pleasure and so be directed by Him.
