Contextual Overview

7 Wherefore do wicked men liue, come to their olde age, and increase in richesse? 8 Their children lyue in their sight, and their generation before their eyes. 9 Their houses are safe from all feare, and the rod of God is not vpon them. 10 Their bullocke gendreth and that not out of time, their cowe calueth and is not vnfruitfull. 11 They sende foorth their children by flockes, & their sonnes [leade the] daunce. 12 They beare with them tabrets and harpes, and reioyce in the sounde of the organs. 13 They spend their dayes in wealthines, but sodainely they go downe to the graue. 14 They say also vnto God: Go from vs, we desire not the knowledge of thy wayes. 15 Who is the almightie that we should serue him? And what profite should we haue if we should pray vnto him? 16 Lo, there is vtterly no goodnesse in their hande, therefore wyll I not haue to do with the counsaile of the vngodly.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Their bull gendereth, and faileth not,.... As the wicked man's prosperity is described before by the increase and comfortable settlement of his children and grandchildren, and by the peace and safety of all within doors; here it is further set forth by the increase of his cattle in the fields, one part being put for the whole, his oxen and asses, his camels and sheep, things in which the riches of men chiefly lay in those times and countries; and he was reckoned an happy man when these brought forth abundantly; see Psalms 144:13;

their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf; both male and female succeed in propagating their species, and so in increasing the wealth of their owner; this is sometimes promised as a temporal blessing,

Exodus 23:26.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Their bull gendereth - See Rosenmuller and Lee on this verse; comp Bochart, Hieroz. P. 1, Lib. ii. c. xxx. The general idea is, that the wicked were prospered as well as the pious. God did not interpose by a miracle to cut off their cattle, and to prevent their becoming rich.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 21:10. Their bull gendereth — עבר ibbar, passes over, i.e., on the cow, referring to the actions of the bull when coupling with the female. Their flocks multiply greatly, they bring forth in time, and none of them is barren.
