John Gill Commentary Job 39:22

"He mocketh at fear, and is not dismayed; Neither turneth he back from the sword." — Job 39:22 (ASV)

He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted
At those things which cause fear and fright to men; as arms, though ever so terrible, and armies, though never so numerous;

neither turneth he back from the sword ;
the naked sword, when it is drawn against him, and ready to be thrust into him; the horse being so bold and courageous was with the Egyptians a symbol of courage and boldness ^F22 .
