He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
Ver. 28. He will deliver his soul from going, &c.] God will heal him, and lengthen out his life. Or, the sick man will, by his unfeigned repentance, procure his own reprieve and deliverance from deadly danger. Some make these words to be the sick man's thankful confession, He hath redeemed my soul, &c., not unlike that of David, Psalms 116:8, and that of Hezekiah, Isaiah 38:17 .
And his life shall see the light] He shall not only live, but live happily and comfortably: a joyless life is no life.
