- Exodus 15:8
At the blast of Your nostrils the waters piled up; like a wall the currents stood firm; the depths congealed in the heart of the sea.
Commentary on Exodus 15:82 voices
And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The depths were congealed - The strong east wind (Exo 14:21) employed to dry the bottom of the sea, is here represented as the blast of Gods nostrils that had congealed or frozen the waters, so that they stood in heaps like a wall on the right hand and on the left.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Deuteronomy 28:22
The LORD will strike you with wasting disease, with fever and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, and with blight and mildew; these will pursue you until you perish.
Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:222 voices
The Lord shall smite thee with a consumption,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Consumption - שחפת shachepheth, atrophy through lack of food; from שחף shacaph, to be in want. Fever - קדחת kaddachath, from קדח kadach, to be kindled, burn, sparkle; a burning inflammatory fever. Inflammation - דלקת dalleketh, from דלק dalak, to pursue eagerly, to burn after; probably a rapidly consuming cancer. Extreme burning - חרחר charchur, burning upon burning, scald upon scald; from חר char, to be heated, enraged, etc. This probably refers, not only to excruciating inflammations on the body, but also to the irritation and agony of a mind utterly abandoned by God, and lost to hope.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- 2 Samuel 22:16
The channels of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were exposed at the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of His nostrils.
Commentary on 2 Samuel 22:161 voice
And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the Lord, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils. See Gill on Psa 18:15.

- 1 Kings 8:37
When famine or plague comes upon the land, or blight or mildew or locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemy besieges them in their cities, whatever plague or sickness may come,
Commentary on 1 Kings 8:371 voice
[The Scripture] defines them as diseases deriving from changes in the weather. Blight [occurs when] wheat does not grow. Therefore [we read] these words: "Pharaoh saw ears blighted by a burning wind." Mildew derives from excessive heat and constant bad weather and descends on wheat …

- 2 Kings 19:7
Behold, I will put a spirit in him so that he will hear a rumor and return to his own land, where I will cause him to fall by the sword.’”
Commentary on 2 Kings 19:71 voice
Will send a blast upon him - Rather, I will put a spirit in him - i. e., I will take from him his present pride and will put in him a new spirit, a spirit of craven fear. Men shall tell him of the destruction that has come upon his host 2Ki 19:35, and he shall straightway return, etc.

- Job 4:9
By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of His anger they are consumed.
Commentary on Job 4:92 voices
Even, as I have seen, they that plough iniquity, and sow sorrows, and reap the same, by the blast of God do they perish, and by the breath of His nostrils are they consumed. To 'sow griefs' is to utter deceits, but to 'reap griefs' is to prevail by so speaking. Or, surely, they 'sow griefs,' who do froward actions, they 'reap griefs,' when they ate punished for this forwardness.
Gregory the Dialogist· Morals on the Book of Job, Book V, 604Patristic
He carries this metaphor further in speaking about punishment. Corn fields usually dry up and are destroyed by a scorching wind. As Malachi says, "I will rebuke the devourer," i.e. the wind, "so that it may not devour the fruit of your land." (3:11) He …

- Psalms 18:15
The channels of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were exposed, at Your rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of Your nostrils.
Commentary on Psalms 18:151 voice
"And the fountains appeared." Here he treats of the generation of waters, which emanate from certain sources called springs, from which all generation of waters comes. Now these are generated in two ways. Sometimes from a customary and natural cause: just as vapors are raised …

Thomas Aquinas· Commentary on Isaiah, 1274Patristic
- Amos 4:9
“I struck you with blight and mildew in your growing gardens and vineyards; the locust devoured your fig and olive trees, yet you did not return to Me,” declares the LORD.
Commentary on Amos 4:91 voice
(Verse 9) I struck you with scorching wind and with blight. The abundance of your gardens, vineyards, olive groves, and fig trees were eaten by the locusts, yet you did not return to me, says the Lord. LXX: I struck you with burning heat and with blight. You multiplied your gardens, vineyards, fig trees, and olive groves, yet you did not even turn to me, says the Lord. It was not only the past that I did to correct you; but whatever remained of the drought, I struck with scorching wind and blight.
Jerome· Commentary on Amos, 420Patristic
- Haggai 2:17
I struck you—all the work of your hands—with blight, mildew, and hail, but you did not turn to Me, declares the LORD.
Commentary on Haggai 2:171 voice
(Verse 17 onwards) Now set your hearts from this day and above, before the stone was placed upon stone in the temple of the Lord. When you approached a heap of twenty measures, and it became ten, and you entered the winepress to press out fifty jars, and it became twenty. I struck you with blight and mildew and hail in all the work of your hands, yet you did not return to me, says the Lord.
Jerome· Commentary on Haggai, 420Patristic
