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

They cause the naked to lodge without clothing,.... That is, such as are poorly clothed, thinly arrayed, have scarce anything but rags, and yet so cruel the wicked men above described, that they take these away from the poor, and even their bed clothes, which seem chiefly designed; so that they are obliged to lodge or lie all night without anything upon them:

that [they have] no covering in the cold; neither in the daytime, nor in the night, and especially the latter; and having no house to go to, and obliged to lay themselves down upon the bare ground, had nothing to cover them from the inclemency of the weather; for even in hot countries nights are sometimes cold, and large dews fall, yea, sometimes it is a frost, see Genesis 31:40.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

They cause the naked to lodge without clothing - They strip others of their clothing, and leave them destitute.

That they have no covering in the cold - All travelers tell us, that though the day is intensely hot in the deserts of Arabia, yet the nights are often intensely cold. Hence, the sufferings of those who are plundered, and who have nothing to defend themselves from the cold air of the night.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 24:7. They cause the naked to lodge without clothing — Or rather, They spend the night naked, without clothing; and without a covering from the cold: another characteristic of the wandering Arabs. They are ill-fed, ill-clothed. and often miserable off, even for tents. They can have little household stuff: as they are plunderers, they are often obliged to fly for their lives, and cannot encumber themselves with what is not absolutely needful.
