Contextual Overview

¹ Knowest thou the time whe the wylde goates bring foorth their young among the stonye rockes? or layest thou wayte when the hindes vse to calue? ² Canst thou number the monethes that they go with young? or knowest thou the time when they bring foorth? ³ They lye downe, they calue their young ones, and they are deliuered of their trauaile and paine: ⁴ Yet their young ones grow vp, and waxe fatte through good feeding with corne: They go foorth, and returne not againe vnto them. ⁵ Who letteth the wylde asse to go free? or who looseth the bondes of the wylde mule? ⁶ Euen I which haue geuen the wyldernesse to be their house, and the vntilled land to be their dwelling. ⁷ They force not for the multitude of people in the citie, neither regarde the crying of the driuer: ⁸ But seeke their pasture about the mountaines, and folowe the greene grasse. ⁹ Wyll the vnicorne do thee seruice, or abide still by thy cribbe? ¹⁰ Canst thou binde the yoke about the vnicorne in the forowe, to make him plowe after thee in the valleyes?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow?.... Put the yoke and harness upon him, and fasten it to the plough to draw it, that he may make furrows with it in the field, or plough up the ground as the tame ox does? thou canst not;

or will he harrow the valleys after thee? draw the harrow which is used after ploughing to break the clods, and make the land smooth and even? he will not: valleys are particularly mentioned, because arable land is usually in them; see Psalms 65:13.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? - That is, with the common traces or cords which are employed in binding oxen to the plow.

Or will he harrow the valleys after thee? - The word “valleys” here is used to denote such ground as was capable of being plowed or harrowed. Hills and mountains could not thus be cultivated, though the spade was in common use in planting the vine there, and even in preparing them for seed, Isaiah 7:25. The phrase “after thee” indicates that the custom of driving cattle in harrowing then was the same as that practiced now with oxen, when the person who employs them goes in advance of them. It shows that they were entirely under subjection, and it is here implied that the ראם r^e'êm could not be thus tamed.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 39:10. Canst thou bind the unicorn - in the furrow? — He will not plough, nor draw in the yoke with another? nor canst thou use him singly, to harrow the ground.
