Job24:7
7. They cause the naked to lodge without cloathing , that they have no covering in the cold .
i. e. Those whom they have made naked, whom they stripped of their garments and coverings; so far were they from exercising justice or charity towards them.
To sleep in the night, which is the coldest season.
Without Bed-cloaths to cover them. Compare Deut. 24. 13.
Of the Night of the Winterseason. This Verse is and may fitly be rendred thus ▪ They cause men to lodge naked, because they have no cloathing, (i. e. because they leave them nothing wherewith they can cloath themselves) and no covering in the cold: They leave them neither rayment to wear in the Day, nor a covering for the Night.
