Definitions for Job 24:7

Without - Outside.

Clarke's Job 24:7 Bible Commentary

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.

Barnes's Job 24:7 Bible Commentary

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.

Wesley's Job 24:7 Bible Commentary

24:7 Naked - Those whom they stripped of their garments and coverings.
