Job 39:21 He breaketh up the earth with his hoof, he pranceth boldly, he goeth forward to meet armed men.

Hoof. Ploughing, or rather prancing, through impatience. (Calmet) --- Boldly. Hebrew, "he exults in his strength," being sensible of glory and commendation. (Calmet) --- Non dubie intellectum adhortationis et gloriae fatentur. (Pliny 7:43.)
