Commentary on Job 20:28 (Summary)

Job 20:28 (ESV)

28 The possessions of his house will be carried away, dragged off in the day of God’s wrath.

The day on which Job had lost everything is described by Zophar as the day of God’s wrath. Job’s house (all his offspring) was gone in an instant, as if taken by a flood.
