Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Job 1:3

His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.Camels - Camels in these parts were very numerous, and very useful, both for carrying burdens in these hot and dry countries, as being able to endure thirst much better than other creatures, and for service in war.Asses — He-asses also may be included in this expression,... read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Job 1:9

Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?For nought — Out of pure love and respect to thee? No. It is policy, not piety, that makes him good; he doth not serve thee, but serveth himself of thee, serving thee for his own ends. read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Job 1:12

And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.Behold, … — It seems strange, that, God should give Satan such a permission as this.
