Job27:17
17. He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on , and the innocent shall divide the silver.
Either because it shall be given to him by the Judge to recompence those Injuries which he received from that Tyrant: Or because the right of it is otherwise transferred upon him by divine Providence.
Either 1. To the poor: he shall distribute that which the oppressors hoarded up and kept as wickedly as he got it. So this suits with Prov. 28. 8. Eccles. 2. 26. Or 2. With others or to himself. He shall have a share of it, when by the Judges sentence those ill-gotten goods shall be restored to the right owners.
