This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





They; the wicked oppressors, as is manifest from the following words.



From the breast; either out of cruelty, not sparing poor infants, but killing them; or out of covetousness, and with design either to sell the mother, or to employ her in their work, to which they so strictly confine her, that they will not allow any of her time or strength for the suckling of her infant.



Take a pledge of the poor; of which See Poole "Job_22:6".
