Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 21:9

_ _ Literally, “peace from fear”; with poetic force. Their house is peace itself, far removed from fear. Opposed to the friends’ assertion, as to the bad (Job 15:21-24; Job 20:26-28), and conversely, the good (Job 5:23, Job 5:24).

Matthew Henry's Commentary
