Job 24:4 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

They turn the needy out of the way - They crowd the poor out of the path, and thus oppress and injure them. They do not allow them the advantages of the highway.

The poor of the earth hide themselves together - For fear of the rich and mighty man. Driven from the society of the rich, without their patronage and friendship, they are obliged to associate together, and find in the wicked man neither protector nor friend. And yet the proud oppressor is not punished.

Job 24:4

4 They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together.
