Комментарий к Ийова 39:1

הֲיָדַ֗עְתָּ עֵ֭ת לֶ֣דֶת יַעֲלֵי־סָ֑לַע חֹלֵ֖ל אַיָּל֣וֹת תִּשְׁמֹֽר׃

Знаешь ли ты время, когда рождаются дикие козлы скалы? Или ты можешь пометить, когда лохи отдают?

Rashi on Job

mountain goats Estainboc in Old French. It hates its young, and, when preparing to give birth, goes to the top of a high rock, so that its young should fall to the earth and die. But the Holy One, blessed be He, prepares an eagle for it [the young], which receives it on its wings.

Malbim on Job

Like verse 25 in the previous chapter, this verse too was seen by the Talmudic Sages as proof of the 'fine-tuning' of Providence:
The wild goat is heartless towards her young. When she crouches for delivery, she goes to the top of a mountain so that the young shall fall down and be killed, and I [God] prepare an eagle to catch it in its wings and set it before her, and if he were one moment too soon or too late it would be killed...The hind has a narrow womb. When she crouches for delivery, I [God] prepare a serpent that bites her at the opening of the womb, and she is delivered of her offspring; and were it one moment too soon or too late, she would die (TB Baba Batra 16a-16b).

Rashi on Job

Do you wait for the hinds to calve? Heb. חלל, an expression of (Jer. 6:24), “pain (חיל) as of a woman in travail.” The hind’s womb is narrow, and the young cannot come forth; and, at the time of birth, I prepare a snake for her that bites her womb so that it opens; should it be a moment too early or too late, she would die immediately. I know to distinguish these moments, so should the distinction between Job (אִיוֹב) and enemy (אוֹיֵב) escape Me?
