Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 42:2

2. He shall not cry , nor lift up , nor cause his voice to be heard in the street .

Either 1. In a way of contention, as anger is oft accompanied with clamour, Eph. 4. 31. Or, 2. In a way of ostentation. It seems to be meant both wayes, by comparing this place with Mat. 12. 16, 17, 20. He shall neither erect nor manage his Kingdom, with violence and outward pomp and state, as worldly Princes do, but with meekness and humility.

His voice, which is easily understood out of the following clause, and from many other Scriptures, where that word is added to this verb, to compleat the Phrase.

As contentious and vain-glorious persons frequently do.
