Dwelling Dwellings Evil Houses Perverse Sinner Surely Tabernacles Ungodly Unrighteous Wicked
Job 18
1. Bildad reproves Job for presumption and impatience
5. The calamities of the wicked














(21) Dwellings of the wicked.--That is to say, of the wicked man. As Bildad designedly uses the singular here, there can be little doubt that he as designedly intended this terrible and cruel picture to represent Job himself.

Verse 21. - Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked. "Such as I have described is the general condition and manner of life of the man who is wicked." and this is the place (or, position) of him that knoweth not God. The singular number used both in this clause and the preceding indicates that the whole series of denunciations (vers. 5-21) is levelled against an individual - viz. Job.
