This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Job shows that the matter of fact opposes Zophar’s theory (Job 11:14, Job 11:19, Job 11:20) that wickedness causes insecurity in men’s “tabernacles.” On the contrary, they who rob the “tabernacles” (“dwellings”) of others “prosper securely” in their own.
into whose hand, etc. - rather, “who make a god of their own hand,” that is, who regard their might as their only ruling principle [Umbreit].
