Job 39:7

Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"He scorneth the tumult of the city, Neither heareth he the shoutings of the driver." — Job 39:7 (ASV)

The crying of the driver. —Or, the shoutings of the taskmaster. The word is the same as that applied to the taskmasters of Egypt, and this suggests the question whether or not there may be a reminiscence of that bondage here.
