Job 37:22

From the north (Hebr. tsafon) comes a glow of gold,
a terrifying majesty surrounds God (Eloha).
[In just a few verses, God will appear "glorious and terrifying" in the storm wind. The usual word for north, tsafon, is used here. Tsafon is identified in Ugaritic and other Canaanite myths as the dwelling place of the storm god Baal-Tsafon and was also considered a gathering place for other gods. The place is identified as Mount Jebel Aqra on the border between modern Syria and Turkey at the mouth of the Orontes River, a few miles north of Ugarit. This may not be what Eliho is referring to; it may also be that the north wind with rain often cleared the air and provided clear visibility, see Prov 25:23. Others see a reference to the northern lights, but this is not very likely.]
