26:10 created the horizon: See Gen 1:6-10; Ps 104:6-9; Prov 8:29.
26:11 Mountains at the edge of the horizon might be the foundations (or “pillars,” Judg 16:25-26) of heaven or the earth (Job 9:6). They were thought to reach from below the waters of the sea (Jon 2:6) and up to the clouds to support the vaults of heaven.
26:12 the sea grew calm (cp. Exod 14:21; Mark 4:39): Or the sea was stirred up (cp. Isa 51:15; Jer 31:35). In either interpretation, God performed a miracle on behalf of his people. • crushed the great sea monster: God’s dominance over the sea demythologized popular beliefs about the sea’s divinity. See also Pss 74:13-14; 89:9-10; Isa 27:1; 51:9-10.
26:13 His Spirit (or wind): God’s authority clears the skies after a storm (26:12). • The gliding serpent corresponds to Yam and Rahab (see study note on 7:12); it provides background for the image of Satan as a dragon (Isa 27:1; also Ps 74:13-14; see Gen 3:15; Rom 16:20; Rev 12:9; 20:2).
