Parallels to Job creating the stream and striking with the bundle of grass?

These two details about the story of Job in Sura Sad have puzzled me for years. Are there any possible parallels to the idea of joyb being commanded by God to strike the ground with his foot in order that a spring of water would come up, or him being commanded to strike something or someone with a bundle of grass?

Is there possibly rabbinical texts that somehow connect to Job the imagery of streams or grass, or somehow contain more direct parallels to these ideas? I know Reynolds once suggestednthe stream was somehow connected to the story of Hagar in Genesis.
