Holy Scripture

Job 21:29

A church father on this verse
“Ver. 29, 30. Ask everyone of them that go by the way; and ye will know that he understands this same. Because the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction, and he is brought to the day of wrath. [MORAL INTERPRETATION] 68. For often the patience of God bears for long with those, whom it already condemns to punishme…”

27So I know you, that ye presumptuously attack me:

28So that ye will say, Where is the house of the prince? And where is the covering of the tabernacles of the ungodly?

— Job 21:29 —

30For the wicked hastens to the day of destruction: They shall be led away for the day of his vengeance.

31Who will tell him his way to his face, whereas he has done it? Who shall recompense him?
