Commentary on Proverbs 30:19
Theological / DevotionalThe way of an eagle. The four items mentioned are examples of inscrutable things, drawn from natural history. Some have observed that the point common to each of these four diverse things is that there is nothing to mark the path that they have pursued. Allegorizations such as liken the eagle to Christ (Deut. 32:11, 12), the serpent to the devil attacking Christ the Rock (Rev. 12:9), the ship to the church pursuing its unmarked course through the sea of sinful humanity, and the maid to the Virgin Mary, do violence to sound principles of Scriptural interpretation.
