“And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. from: Heb. from aside, etc”
Job 1:19 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 1:19
The wind from the wilderness represents the culminating blow—all ten children perishing together. The Hebrew 'ruach' (wind/spirit) can signify both natural wind and spiritual agency, suggesting Satan's limited power to employ natural forces. Yet even this operates under God's sovereign permission. The death of Job's children tests whether his worship in verse 5 was genuine or merely protective superstition.
