kûr´d 'l ( קפא , ḳāphā ), "to congeal," "harden," "curdle"): Occurs in Job 10:10 , "Hast thou not ... curdled me like cheese?" i.e. made him take solid form. "The formation of the embryo is a mystery on which the Hebrew dwells with a deep and reverential awe: compare Psalm 139:13-16 ." These similes are often met with in the Koran and oriental poetry. See Speaker's Commentary in the place cited
