Commentary on Job 9:22 (Summary)

Job 9:22 (ESV)

22 It is all one; therefore I say, ‘He destroys both the blameless and the wicked.’

Bildad had made a sharp distinction between the destiny of the wicked and that of the righteous (Job 8:11–22). Job denies this distinction, for God destroys both kinds of people. Disaster is not necessarily the result of sin.
