Isaiah29:18

Ver. 18. In that day ſhall the deaf hear the words of the book] i. e. the deaf and blind Gentiles being by the preaching of the Goſpel drawn out of darkneſs into Gods marvellous light, ſhall ſee and hear that which eye never ſaw, nor ear heard, neither hath entred into the heart of any natural man to conceive, 1 Cor. 2.9. They ſhall firſt be illightened, ſecondly, accheared, ver. 19. ſo Act. 13.48. Rom. 14.17.

The words of the book] the holy Scriptures, that book which the proud would not read, the ignorant could not, ver. 11. & 12.

Shall ſee out of obſcurity] ſee their Saviour, as Simeon, ſee that blisful viſion, Eph. 1.18, 19. See Joh. 9.39.
