Commentary for Job 21:30
כִּ֤י לְי֣וֹם אֵ֭יד יֵחָ֣שֶׂךְ רָ֑ע לְי֖וֹם עֲבָר֣וֹת יוּבָֽלוּ׃
That the evil man is reserved to the day of calamity, That they are led forth to the day of wrath?
Rashi on Job
That They told you that... the wicked man is reserved for the day of calamity The wicked man is withheld and spared from evil and reserved for the day that is appointed for his calamity, like (below 38:23), “That I have saved for a time of trouble.” I laid them away and spared them to let them know until the day of battle and war.

Malbim on Job
Are they only spared in this world to be punished in the Hereafter, as Bildad claimed?
