Commentary on Job 15:28
The wicked dwell in desolation: 'And he dwelleth in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabiteth, which are ready to become heaps.' Eliphaz predicts the wicked will inhabit ruins—living in places under divine judgment or curse. Ancient cities lay desolate due to conquest or curse (Jeremiah's prophecies about Babylon, Edom). Living there suggested participation in their judgment. This doesn't fit Job—he lost his home to calamity, not divine curse.
