Job 15:19
_ _ Eliphaz speaks like a genuine Arab when he boasts that his ancestors had ever possessed the land unmixed with foreigners [Umbreit]. His words are intended to oppose Job’s (Job 9:24); “the earth” in their case was not “given into the hand of the wicked.” He refers to the division of the earth by divine appointment (Genesis 10:5; Genesis 25:32). Also he may insinuate that Job’s sentiments had been corrupted from original purity by his vicinity to the Sabeans and Chaldeans [Rosenmuller]. |
Job 15:19
To whom — By the gracious gift of God: this he alleges to make their testimony more considerable, because these were no obscure men, but the most worthy and famous men in their ages; and to confute what Job had said, Job 9:24, that the earth was given into the hand of the wicked. By the earth he means the dominion and possession of it. Stranger — No person of a strange nation and disposition, or religion. Passed — Through their land, so as to disturb, or spoil them, as the Sabeans and Chaldeans did thee. God watched over those holy men so, that no enemy could invade them; and so he would have done over thee, if thou hadst been such an one. |
Job 15:19
Unto whom alone the earth was (l) given, and no stranger passed among them.
(l) Who by their wisdom so governed, that no stranger invaded them, and so the land seemed to be given to them alone. |
- Unto whom:
Genesis 10:25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one [was] Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name [was] Joktan.
Genesis 10:32 These [are] the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
Deuteronomy 32:8 When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.
Joel 3:17 So shall ye know that I [am] the LORD your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.
