Comentário sobre Jó 38:37

charges Heb. יספר, will speak and charge with their mission.

Malbim adopted Tycho Brahe's astronomical system according to which the Earth is at rest at the center of the Universe and the Sun revolves annually around it while the Planets concurrently circle the Sun. In his interpretation of this verse Malbim attempts, not entirely successfully, to unite Kepler's harmonies and planetary laws with Brahe's system and writes:
Behold, God ordered the multitude of orbiting spheres by means of the force of attraction that each body and sphere exerts on its neighbor; with the Earth as the center of the orbit in accordance with the ancients' astronomy. And scientists have already shown that if we draw chords from a star to its companion, the force of attraction that one exerts on the other will be in the same ratio as are the strings of a harp, with regard to sound: that a string that is double [the length of] its companion, its pitch is cubed [23 = 8, i.e., the interval is an octave], and so it always is, and so is the action of the force of attraction.
