Job 39:24 Commentary: Rashi, Rambam, Ibn Ezra & More

בְּרַ֣עַשׁ וְ֭רֹגֶז יְגַמֶּא־אָ֑רֶץ וְלֹֽא־יַ֝אֲמִ֗ין כִּי־ק֥וֹל שׁוֹפָֽר׃

He swalloweth the ground with storm and rage; Neither believeth he that it is the voice of the horn.

Rashi on Job

he hollows out the ground Heb. יגמא. He makes holes (גומות) with his feet. Another explanation: יְגַמֶא is like (Gen. 24:17), “Let me please swallow (הגמיאיני).”
