Cross-reference

In Job 30:26, Job later experiences the very disappointment he cursed here: hoping for light but getting darkness.

Job 41:18 uses the same phrase 'eyelids of the dawn' to describe Leviathan's eyes, linking the cursed day to the chaos monster.

Job 33:28 Contrast

Job 33:28 speaks of seeing light after redemption, directly opposite to Job's curse of not seeing the eyelids of morning.
