Refuting their philosophy about the wicked, who often fair well and therefore his troubles are not proof that he is wicked. Wicked are often prosperous, while the righteous are often in great poverty. It appears to Job that God does not punish the wicked for their evil life. Sometimes the wicked seems to have great production in their endeavors. Sometimes they even seem immune from the common troubles of man, they seem to enjoy all live, while the righteous suffer.
