| Job 21:7 | *Why then do the wicked live, are they advanced, and strengthened with riches? Jeremias 12:1.; Habacuc 1:13. | Riches. This is what fills me with great anxiety. Yet it quite destroys the force of your argument, (Calmet) since you pretend that the prosperity of the wicked is never of long duration. We see them, however, live to an advanced old age, (Haydock) continually offending God, and annoying their neighbours. (Calmet) --- Septuagint, "yea, they grow old in riches." |
