Isaiah 35:9 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

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 hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain.
