Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 38:10

_ _ brake up for — that is, appointed it. Shores are generally broken and abrupt cliffs. The Greek for “shore” means “a broken place.” I broke off or measured off for it my limit, that is, the limit which I thought fit (Job 26:10).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 38:4-11.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 38:10

Break up — Made those hollow places in the earth, which might serve for a cradle to receive and hold this great and goodly infant when it came out of the womb. And set — Fixed its bounds as strongly as if they were fortified with bars and doors.
