Contextual Overview

¹ Considering then that there is no time hyd from the almightie, how happeneth it that they which know him do not regarde his dayes? ² For some men remoue the landemarkes, robbe men of their cattell, and feede of the same: ³ They driue away the asse of the fatherlesse, and take the wydowes oxe for a pledge: ⁴ They cause the poore to turne out of the way, so that the poore of the earth hyde them selues together. ⁵ Beholde, as wilde asses in the desert go they foorth to their worke, & ryse betimes to spoyle: Yea the very wildernesse ministreth foode for them & their children. ⁶ They reape the corne fielde that is not their owne, and let the vineyarde of the vngodly alone. ⁷ They cause the naked to lodge without garment, and without couering in the colde. ⁸ They are wet with the showres of the mountaynes, and embrace the rocke for want of a couering. ⁹ They plucke the fatherlesse from the brest, and take the pledge from the poore. ¹⁰ They let hym go naked without clothing, and haue taken away the sheafe of the hungrie.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

[Which] make oil within their walls,.... Not the poor within their own walls; as if the sense was, that they made their oil in a private manner within the walls of their houses, or in their cellars, lest it should be known and taken away from them; for such cannot be thought to have had oliveyards to make oil of; rather within the walls of their rich masters, where they were kept closely confined to their work, as if in a prison; or within the walls and fences of their oliveyards, where their olive presses stood; or best of all "within the rows q [of] their [olive trees]", as the word signifies, where having gathered the olives, they pressed out the oil in the presses and this they did at noon, in the heat of the day, as the word r for making oil is observed by some to signify, and yet had nothing given them to quench their thirst, as follows:

[and] tread [their] winepresses, and suffer thirst; after having gathered their grapes from their vines for them, they trod them in the winepresses, and made their wine, and yet would not allow them to drink of it to allay their thirst.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Which made oil within their walls - Or rather, they compel them to express oil within their walls. The word יצהירו yatshı̂yrû, rendered “made oil,” is from צחר tsachar, to shine, to give light; and hence, the derivatives of the word are used to denote light, and then oil, and thence the word comes to denote to press out oil for the purpose of light. Oil was obtained for this purpose from olives by pressing them, and the idea here is, that the poor were compelled to engage in this service for others without compensation. The expression “within their walls,” means probably within the walls of the rich; that is, within the enclosures where such presses were erected. They were taken away from their homes; compelled to toil for others; and confined for this purpose within enclosures erected for the purpose of expressing oil. Some have proposed to read this passage, “Between their walls they make them toil at noonday;” as if it referred to the cruelty of causing them to labor in the sweltering heat of the sun. But the former interpretation is the most common, and best agrees with the usual meaning of the word, and with the connection.

And tread their wine-presses and suffer thirst - They compel them to tread out their grapes without allowing them to slake their thirst from the wine. Such a treatment would, of course, be cruel oppression. A similar description is given by Addison in his letter from Italy:

Il povreo Abitante mira indarno

Il roseggiante Arancio e’l pingue grano,

Crescer dolente ei mira ed oli, e vini,

E de mirti odorar l’ ombra ei sdegna.

In mezzo alla Bonta della Natura

Maledetto languisce, e deatro a cariche

Di vino vigne muore per la sete.

“The poor inhabitant beholds in vain

The reddening orange and the swelling grain;

Joyless he sees the growing oils and wines

And in the myrtle’s fragrant shade repines;

Starves, in the midst of nature’s bounty curst,

And in the loaden vineyard dies for thirst.”

Addison’s works, vol. i. pp. 51-53. Ed. Lond. 1721.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 24:11. Make oil within their walls — Thus stripped of all that on which they depended for clothing and food, they are obliged to become vassals to their lord, labour in the fields on scanty fare, or tread their wine-presses, from the produce of which they are not permitted to quench their thirst.
