Contextual Overview
1 Job Continues Why doesn't God set a time for court? Why don't his people know where he can be found? 2 Sinners remove boundary markers and take care of sheep they have stolen. 3 They cheat orphans and widows by taking their donkeys and oxen. 4 The poor are trampled and forced to hide 5 in the desert, where they and their children must live like wild donkeys and search for food. 6 If they want grain or grapes, they must go to the property of these sinners. 7 They sleep naked in the cold, because they have no cover, 8 and during a storm their only shelters are caves among the rocky cliffs. 9 Children whose fathers have died are taken from their mothers as payment for a debt. 10 Then they are forced to work naked in the grain fields because they have no clothes, and they go hungry.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
They cause the naked to lodge without clothing,.... That is, such as are poorly clothed, thinly arrayed, have scarce anything but rags, and yet so cruel the wicked men above described, that they take these away from the poor, and even their bed clothes, which seem chiefly designed; so that they are obliged to lodge or lie all night without anything upon them:
that [they have] no covering in the cold; neither in the daytime, nor in the night, and especially the latter; and having no house to go to, and obliged to lay themselves down upon the bare ground, had nothing to cover them from the inclemency of the weather; for even in hot countries nights are sometimes cold, and large dews fall, yea, sometimes it is a frost, see Genesis 31:40.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
They cause the naked to lodge without clothing - They strip others of their clothing, and leave them destitute.
That they have no covering in the cold - All travelers tell us, that though the day is intensely hot in the deserts of Arabia, yet the nights are often intensely cold. Hence, the sufferings of those who are plundered, and who have nothing to defend themselves from the cold air of the night.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Job 24:7. They cause the naked to lodge without clothing — Or rather, They spend the night naked, without clothing; and without a covering from the cold: another characteristic of the wandering Arabs. They are ill-fed, ill-clothed. and often miserable off, even for tents. They can have little household stuff: as they are plunderers, they are often obliged to fly for their lives, and cannot encumber themselves with what is not absolutely needful.
