“Because he covereth his face with his fatness, and maketh collops of fat on his flanks.”
King James Version (KJV)
15:27 Because - This is mentioned as the reason of his insolent carriage towards God, because he was fat, rich, potent, and successful, as that expression signifies, #Deut 32:15 Psal 78:31 Jer 46:21|. His great prosperity made him proud and secure, and regardless of God and men. Fat - His only care is to pamper himself.
Because he couereth his face with his fatnesse, and maketh collops of fat on his flankes.
