Job 15:27
Compare all
25 For he stretches out his hand against God,
And acts defiantly against the Almighty,
26 Running stubbornly against Him
With his strong, embossed shield.
27 “Thougha he has covered his face with his fatness,
And made his waist heavy with fat, 
28 He dwells in desolate cities,
In houses which no one inhabits,
Which are destined to become ruins.
29 He will not be rich,
Nor will his wealth acontinue,
Nor will his possessions overspread the earth.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Job 15:26   Job 15:28 >>


Job 15:27

Because - This is mentioned as the reason of his insolent carriage towards God, because he was fat, rich, potent, and successful, as that expression signifies, Deuteronomy 32:15; Psalms 78:31; Jeremiah 46:21. His great prosperity made him proud and secure, and regardless of God and men. Fat - His only care is to pamper himself.
