イザヤ書 35:9-10 JC

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 35:10

The ransomed of the Lord shall return . The blessedness of the last times would be incomplete to Jewish ideas without this crowning feature. There had already been a great dispersion of the faithful ( Isaiah 1:7-9 ); there was to be a still greater one ( Isaiah 11:11 ); Israel could not be content or happy until her "outcasts" were recalled, "the dispersed of Judah gathered together from the four corners of the earth" ( Isaiah 11:12 ). The return here prophesied is again announced, in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 35:10

Within the gates. If the two preceding verses may be regarded as descriptive of the Christian pilgrimage, the text may appropriately be treated as pictorial of the heavenly city in which that journey ends. The language of this verse suggests to us— I. THE DISTINGUISHING FEATURE OF THOSE WHO ARE ADMITTED . They are "the ransomed of the Lord." They were in spiritual bondage: they have been redeemed by a Divine Deliverer; they have been ransomed at a great price; they... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 35:10

The return of the ransomed. "Whoever is familiar with the bold and magnificent character of the prophetic style will not deem the liberation from the Captivity an event too trivial to be predicted in the language here employed." "Minor and temporary deliverances are not only emblems of the great salvation, but preparatory to it." "The first volume of Isaiah's prophecy closes fitly with this transcendent picture, carrying the thoughts of men beyond any possible earthly fulfillment. The... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 35:9

No lion shall be there - Lions abounded in all the countries adjacent to Palestine. They are, therefore, often referred to by the sacred writers, as objects of dread and alarm. The leading idea in the language of Isaiah in this whole passage, is that of a way constructed from Babylon to Judea, so straight and plain that the most simple of the people might find it and walk in it. But such a path would lie through desert sands. It would be in the region infested with lions and other wild beasts.... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 35:10

And the ransomed of the Lord - The word rendered here ‘ransomed,’ is different from the word rendered ‘redeemed’ in Isaiah 35:9. This word is פדוּיי pedûyēy from פדה pâdâh; though it is not easy, perhaps not possible, to designate the difference in the sense. Doubtless there was a shade of difference among the Hebrews, but what it was is not now known. See this word explained in the note at Isaiah 1:27. The language here is all derived from the deliverance from Babylon, and the images... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 35:9

Isaiah 35:9. No lion shall be there, &c. It shall not only be a plain, but a safe way. They that keep close to God in this way, keep out of the reach of Satan, the roaring lion: that wicked one toucheth them not; nor shall any of their other spiritual enemies be suffered to destroy, subdue, or bring them into bondage. They may proceed with a holy security and serenity of mind, and may be quiet from the fear of evil. This is the same promise with that of Isaiah 11:9: They shall not... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 35:10

Isaiah 35:10. And the ransomed of the Lord They whom God shall rescue from their captivity and slavery in Babylon, say some; shall return and come to Zion Shall be restored to their own land, from whence they had been carried captive. But the following expressions are far too magnificent and emphatical to be answered by the mere return of the Jews to Judea and Jerusalem, which was accompanied and followed by many sighs and sorrows, as appears both from sacred and profane historians. We... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 35:1-10

A paradise for God’s people (35:1-10)In contrast to the terrifying end that awaits the wicked, the final state that God has prepared for the righteous is one of peace, joy and beauty. As judgment was pictured in the devastation of the land of Edom, so salvation is pictured in the restoration of the land of Israel. The picture is that of a desert that turns into a beautiful garden or a mighty forest. The Lord God dwells there and strengthens his people (35:1-4).All the effects of sin are now... read more
