What is the meaning of "Ein Al Afar Mashlo"?
'Rashi': There is a Chataf Kamatz 1 under the Mem. It is an expression of Memshalah - no creation rules over it. It is a noun - a ruler.
Ibn Ezra: It rules in the sea, but not on the land.
Refer to 41:25:2:4.
In our texts, it is a regular Kamatz. (PF)
What is the meaning of "he'Asu li'Vli Chas"?
'Rashi': This is like he'Asuy. I do not know anything like this. It is made without fear of any creation, like it says about a horse "Yischak l'Fachad v'Lo Yechas" (39:22).
Ibn Ezra #1: Were any Giborim made in the world like it, that it does not fear?
Ibn Ezra #2: It is written lacking; it should say Asahu. Hashem made it that it will not fear.
Malbim: If all creations were made in a way that there is no fear, rather, all were weak creations, "Ein Al Afar Mashlo" - over whom would the Creator rule 1 ?! Rather, Hashem made great, awesome creations, and He rules even over them.
I.e. it is not dignified to rule over weak creations. Hashem could have made that all creations are equally strong, or do not fear others due to great defenses, e.g. porcupines! (PF)
