## In Jewish tradition

Calm and clear. Job says God's breath makes the heavens clear and bright.

**Interpretation.** Job's verse is read as showing God's mastery over sky and chaos, with the "slant serpent" as a symbol of a sea monster that God defeated.

### Examples

- By His breath the heavens are serene; His hand hath pierced the slant serpent. (Writings JOB.26.13, JPS 1917) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/S/serene/#x1)
