Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 49:9

9. That thou mayest say to the prisoners , Go forth : to them that are in darkness, Shew your selves: they shall feed in the wayes, and their pastures shall be in all high places .

To wit, with power and effect, as when God said, Let there be Light, &c.

To the Gentiles who are fast bound by the cords of their sins, and taken Captive by the Devil at his will, as this same Phrase is understood, Isa. 42. 7.

Come forth to the light, receive Divine illumination and consolation.

They shall have abundant provision in all places, yea even in those which commonly are barren and unfruitful, and such are both common roads and high grounds.
