Contextual Overview
11 Or who hath geuen me any thyng aforehande, that I may rewarde him againe? All thinges vnder heauen are myne. 12 I wyll not keepe secrete his great strength, his power, nor his comely proportion. 13 Who can discouer the face of his garment? or who shall come to him with a double brydle? 14 Who shall open the doores of his face? for he hath horrible teeth round about. 15 His scales are as it were strong shieldes, so fastened together as if they were sealed: 16 One is so ioyned to another, that no ayre can come in: 17 Yea, one hangeth so vpon another, & sticketh so together, that they can not be sundred. 18 His neesinges make a glistering like fyre, and his eyes lyke the morning shine. 19 Out of his mouth go torches, and sparkes of fire leape out. 20 And out of his nostrels there goeth a smoke, lyke as out of an hotte seething pot, or caldron.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
One is so near to another, that no air can come between them. This shows that it cannot be understood of the skin of the whale, and the hardness and strength of that, which is alike and of a piece; whereas those scales, or be they what they may, though closely joined, yet are distinct: those who interpret this of whales that have teeth, and these of the teeth, observe, that as they have teeth to the number of forty or fifty in the lower jaw, in the upper one fire holes or sockets into which they go; and they are so very close that no wind or air can come between them g.
g Vid. Scheuchzer. ut supra. (Physic. Sacr. vol. 4. p. 848.)
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Job 41:16. One is so near to another — It has already been stated, that a musket-ball fired at him in any direction cannot make a passage through his scales.
