And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.
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 God's marvellous light, shall see and hear that which eye never saw nor ear heard, neither hath entered into the heart of any natural man to conceive. 1Co 2:9 They shall first be enlightened; secondly, to be cheered. Isa 29:19 Acts 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. Isa 29:11-12
Shall see out of obscurity.] See the Saviour, as Simeon; see that blissful vision. Eph 1:18-19 See Job 9:3,9 .
