28:3Man puts an end to the darkness;6
he searches the farthest recesses
for the ore in the deepest darkness.7
Footnotes
- 6 The text appears at first to be saying that by opening up a mine shaft, or by taking lights down below, the miner dispels the darkness. But the clause might be more general, meaning that man goes deep into the earth as if it were day.
- 7 The verse ends with “the stone of darkness and deep darkness.” The genitive would be location, describing the place where the stones are found.
