Midrash sur Job 37:17
אֲשֶׁר־בְּגָדֶ֥יךָ חַמִּ֑ים בְּהַשְׁקִ֥ט אֶ֝֗רֶץ מִדָּרֽוֹם׃
Toi, dont les vêtements deviennent trop chauds, dès que la terre recouvre le calme sous l’influence du midi,
Ein Yaakov (Glick Edition)
(Fol. 31 b) (Jon. 4, 8) And it came to pass when the sun arose that God made ready a hot east wind. R. Juda said: This means that when the wind blows it causes furrows in the sea." Raba then said to him: "If so, then what is the meaning of the passage (Ib., ib., ib.) And the sun hit upon the head of Jonah, that he became faint [if there was a wind?] Therefore said Raba, this means that when a hot east wind blows, all the rest of the winds are silenced. And this is the meaning of the following passage (Job. 37, 17) Thou [who] clothest thyself with warm garments when he giveth the earth rest from the south wind." This was explained by R. Tachlipha in the name of R. Chisda: "When are thy clothes warm? When the earth receives a respite from the south wind; for when it blows it silences all the rest of the winds."
