In the context of Job, this phrase suggests a sense of freedom and carefreeness that the wicked afford their children. Historically, this reflects a time when children were seen as a blessing and a sign of prosperity. The imagery of sending forth implies a deliberate action, indicating that the wicked have the means and security to allow their children to roam freely, unburdened by the struggles that others might face.<p><b>their little ones</b><br />The term "little ones" comes from the Hebrew "&#1506;&#1465;&#1500;&#1461;&#1500;" (olel), which refers to young children or infants. This phrase emphasizes the innocence and vulnerability of youth. In the broader scriptural context, children are often seen as a heritage from the Lord (<a href="/psalms/127-3.htm">Psalm 127:3</a>). The mention of "little ones" here highlights the contrast between the carefree lives of the wicked's children and the suffering of Job, who has lost his own children.<p><b>like a flock</b><br />The imagery of a "flock" is rich in biblical symbolism, often used to describe groups that are cared for and protected, such as sheep under a shepherd. The Hebrew word "&#1506;&#1461;&#1491;&#1462;&#1512;" (eder) suggests a sense of community and order. In this verse, it implies that the children of the wicked are numerous and move together in harmony, much like a well-tended flock. This contrasts with Job's current state of isolation and loss, underscoring the apparent injustice he perceives.<p><b>their children</b><br />The word "children" here is "&#1489;&#1464;&#1468;&#1504;&#1460;&#1497;&#1501;" (banim) in Hebrew, which can mean sons or descendants. This term is significant in the biblical context, as children are seen as a continuation of one's legacy and a sign of divine favor. The mention of "their children" serves to highlight the prosperity and continuity of the wicked's lineage, which seems to thrive despite their moral failings.<p><b>skip about</b><br />The phrase "skip about" is derived from the Hebrew "&#1512;&#1464;&#1511;&#1463;&#1491;" (raqad), meaning to leap or dance. This conveys a sense of joy, vitality, and unrestrained happiness. In the cultural and historical context of the Bible, dancing was often associated with celebration and worship. The image of children skipping about paints a picture of exuberance and carefree living, which stands in stark contrast to Job's lament and the heavy burden of his suffering. This serves to deepen the tension in Job's discourse, as he grapples with the prosperity of the wicked in light of his own righteous suffering.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/job/21.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(11, 12) <span class= "bld">They send forth their little ones . . .</span>--In striking contrast to the fate of Job's own children, and in contradiction to what Eliphaz had said (<a href="/context/job/15-29.htm" title="He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof on the earth.">Job 15:29-33</a>).<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/job/21.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 11.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">They send forth their little ones like a flock</span>.
