Commentaire sur Job 11:17

And your luck shall rise more than midday Heb. חלד. More than the light of midday, חֶלֶד shall rise for you, i.e., luck and time, like (Ps. 39:6), “and my age (חלדי) is as nothing before You.” Another explanation: יקום חָלֶד: means, The light of your rust shall rise; i.e., your darkest place shall illuminate more than the light of midday. I heard this, but the first [explanation] does not please me (not found in some editions).

The Hebrew phrase is ומצהרים יקום חלד. Malbim understands it to mean: 'The totality and the new world that will arise after this world and which is the life in the world to come will arise at noon, from the place of light.' The term חלד is usually understood as meaning 'life' or 'lifetime'. Malbim understands it as designating 'the Universe in its entirety, without regard for the earth which is called Earth (ארץ) or World (תבל), nor the time which on its part is called Eternity (עולם).

your darkness Heb. תעפה. Your darkness shall be like the morning. Another explanation: תָּעֻפָה is an expression of (3:8) “the rays of (עפעפי) dawn.” Because, if it is an expression of darkness, he should have said, “תעוּפה” like תנוּפה, waving, תקוּמה rising, תרוּמה, raising, תנוּמה, slumber.
