from The Theological WordBook of the Old Testament:
>>>> The word is also used figuratively of the chamber from which a
stormwind comes (Job 37:9). The KJV translates h\eder as "south" for the
assumed source of the storm-wind, but RSV is probably more accurate in
rendering: "From its chamber comes the whirlwind." "Chamber of the south"
(Job 9:9) may name a constellation or be the confines of one.<<<<<<
and from Rashi's commentary on TaNaK ( Job 9:9 ):
>>>>>
and the chambers of the south into which to bring the tempest, as he states
(below 37:9): "From the chamber shall come the tempest.<<<<<
