Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 8. - Fire and hail. By "fire," in this combination, we must understand "lightning," or rather the various electrical phenomena accompanying storms in the East, which are sometimes very strange and terrible. Snow and vapors; rather, vapor. The mist so often accompanying snowstorms is probably the "vapor" intended. Stormy wind fulfilling his word (comp. Psalm 107:25).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(8) Fire.--Lightning, as in Psalm 18:12; Psalm 105:32. where it is also found with "hail."Vapours.--The same Hebrew word in Genesis 19:28 and Psalm 119:83 is rendered "smoke," and from the use of the cognate verb is certainly connected with "burning." Hence we probably have here the figure chiasmus (fire and hail, snow and smoke), the smoke answering to the fire, as the snow to the hail. On the other hand, from Psalm 18:8, Psa_144:5, it is plain that the driving mists of a storm were regarded as smoke. (Comp. "The smoky mountain tops."--TENNYSON.) . . .
