 The Condemned Cell (1869-1872) Mihaly Munkacsy (1844-1900) Romanticism Style; Dusseldorf School Magyar Nemzeti Galeria, Budapest, Hungary Image Source: Web Gallery of Art [ Illustration: The painting above reflects Bildad's view of Job -- a man condemned, about to die, and on the verge of losing all. ] SPECIAL NOTE: [ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ] Explanation: In Job 18, Bildad gives his second answer to Job. In the previous two chapters, Job complained that he was condemned to death, though innocent. Bildad told Job to stop speaking and listen to him and his friends. He addressed Job with a plural "you," probably meaning that Job and those like him should shut up and listen to him and his friends. He asked Job why he considered him and his friends to be like vile beasts. He said that Job was tearing himself apart in his anger. And he asked Job if the earth should be forsaken for him and the rock moved out of its place. In other words, should men and nature give way to his will? (1-4). Bildad then offered a series of unfavorable comparisons between Job and the wicked, implying that Job was guilty of all the negative things of which he spoke. He said that the light of the wicked would be put out; that no light would be in his tent. He said that the strength of the wicked would fail and his own counsel would cast him down. He said he would be caught in his own snare. He said that the "firstborn of death would devour his strength; and the "king of terrors" would come upon him. He would be burned with brimstone. He would dry up, root and branch. His name would perish. He would be"driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world." He would have neither son, nor nephew, nor family (to help him, to comfort him, or to carry on his name). His contemporaries and his successors would be astonished. These are the things that happen to the wicked and those who do not know God. And by implication, therefore, Job was wicked and did not know God (5-21). [ Sermons: William Still.

I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.
