SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:17
Todavía estaba éste hablando, y vino otro que dijo: Los caldeos hicieron tres escuadrones, y dieron sobre los camellos, y los tomaron, e hirieron a los criados a filo de espada; y solamente escapé yo para traerte las nuevas.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 1:17
Verse 17. The Chaldeans made out three bands ] The Chaldeans inhabited each side of the Euphrates near to Babylon, which was their capital. They were also mixed with the wandering Arabs, and lived like them on rapine. They were the descendants of Chesed, son of Nahor and brother of Huz, from whom they had their name Casdim, which we translate Chaldeans. They divided themselves into three bands, in order the more speedily and effectually to encompass, collect, and drive off the three thousand camels: probably they mounted the camels and rode off.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-19 - Satan brought Job's troubles upon him on the day that his children began their course of feasting. The troubles all came upon Job at once while one messenger of evil tidings was speaking, another followed. Hi dearest and most valuable possessions were his ten children; news i brought him that they are killed. They were taken away when he had mos need of them to comfort him under other losses. In God only have we help present at all times. (Job 1:20-22)
