Commentary on Job 12:7

Theological / Devotional

Ask now the beasts. Job seems to be pointing out that even among the lower animals the violent are prospered and the innocent are the victims. God does not give security to the gentle, the tame, and the innocent, and punish the ferocious, the bloodthirsty, and the cruel.
