Wesley's Notes for Job 21:15

21:13 Moment - They do not die of a lingering and tormenting disease.

21:14 Therefore - Because of their constant prosperity. Say - Sometimes in words, but commonly in their thoughts and the language of their lives.

21:16 Lo - But wicked men have no reason to reject God, because of their prosperity, for their wealth, is not in their hand; neither obtained, nor kept by their own might, but only by God's power and favour. Therefore I am far from approving their opinion, or following their course.

21:17 Often - I grant that this happens often though not constantly, as you affirm. Lamp - Their glory and outward happiness.
