Job 1:17
_ _ Chaldeans — not merely robbers as the Sabeans; but experienced in war, as is implied by “they set in array three bands” (Habakkuk 1:6-8). Rawlinson distinguishes three periods: 1. When their seat of empire was in the south, towards the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates. The Chaldean period, from 2300 b.c. to 1500 b.c. In this period was Chedorlaomer (Genesis 14:1), the Kudur of Hur or Ur of the Chaldees, in the Assyrian inscriptions, and the conqueror of Syria. 2. From 1500 to 625 b.c., the Assyrian period. 3. From 625 to 538 b.c. (when Cyrus the Persian took Babylon), the Babylonian period. “Chaldees” in Hebrew — Chasaim. They were akin, perhaps, to the Hebrews, as Abraham’s sojourn in Ur, and the name “Chesed,” a nephew of Abraham, imply. The three bands were probably in order to attack the three separate thousands of Job’s camels (Job 1:3). |
Job 1:17
Chaldeans — Who also lived upon spoil, as Xenephon and others observe. |
- The Chaldeans:
Genesis 11:28 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
Isaiah 23:13 Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, [till] the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; [and] he brought it to ruin.
Habakkuk 1:6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, [that] bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces [that are] not theirs.
|
- I only am:
Job 1:15 And the Sabeans fell [upon them], and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
2 Samuel 1:3 And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.
