Charles Ellicott Commentary Job 36:27

"For he draweth up the drops of water, Which distil in rain from his vapor," — Job 36:27 (ASV)

The drops of water. —The origin and first beginnings of the tempest are described. He maketh small, or “he draws up by exhalation.” They pour down rain, or “they distil in rain from His vapour,” or “belonging to its vapour.” The rain is first absorbed, and then distilled and poured down.
