Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 8. Their seed is established- They see their own children grow up, and become settled in the land; and behold their children's children also; so that their generations are not cut off. Even the posterity of the wicked continue.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-16 - Job says, Remarkable judgments are sometimes brought upon notoriou sinners, but not always. Wherefore is it so? This is the day of God' patience; and, in some way or other, he makes use of the prosperity of the wicked to serve his own counsels, while it ripens them for ruin but the chief reason is, because he will make it appear there is another world. These prospering sinners make light of God and religion as if because they have so much of this world, they had no need to loo after another. But religion is not a vain thing. If it be so to us, we may thank ourselves for resting on the outside of it. Job shows their folly.
