What is the meaning of "va'Tipol Shva"?
Rashi: The kingdom of Shva camped against them. This is like "Al Pnei Kol Echav Nafal."
Malbim: Three kinds of evil come to man. (a) Natural evils and losses, e.g. via the elements, lightning, land sinking? (b) Evils via people. (c) Evils via one's own actions, e.g. illness due to excessive desire in eating and intimacy, and overindulging in them, or lack of order or malnutrition. Here the first two came - troops of Shva and fire. After, Kasdim and wind came. Each of the evils had two kinds. Evil via man was (a) amidst desire for money - troops of Shva plundered; (b) love of conquest and authority - for this, they fight like war, nation against nation.
Who are the Ne'arim?
Rashi: Your servants who were guarding [the cattle and donkeys].
What do we learn from "va'Imaltah"?
Rashi: It is an expression of evasion - he evaded the affliction [some texts add, and I came to tell you; once he told, he died].
Devar Eliyahu: The Mal'achim were messengers of the Satan in order to anger Iyov - I escaped only in order to tell you of the pain and loss. Also I was almost killed!
