Job 24

Job 24:13
"Others have been with those who rebel against the light;
They do not want to know its ways
Nor abide in its paths.
I wonder who these others Job is talking about are?  It sounds like they are people who had left God, but have since returned to following His ways.  Is Job thinking of some specifically?  Is it related to his talk of those in cities from the previous verse?  Some who hang around with the wrong crowd for a while?

Whoever they are, they definitely know who they're talking about.  Rebels have always been around, since Adam and Eve.  They want to do things their own way, and don't care if the rules, or God, says that's wrong.  They care about themselves, not anyone else (or at least, not enough to treat them the same).  For them, God isn't important, and they don't care what He wants.
