Commentary on the Bible (1832)

The ransomed - פדויי peduyey, from פדה padah, “to redeem by paying a price.” Those for whom a price was paid down to redeem them from bondage and death. Sighing shall flee away - אנחה anachah. Never was a sorrowful accent better expressed than in this strong guttural word, an-ach-ah; nearly the same with the Irish in their funeral wailings, och-och-on. The whole nation express all their mournful accents by these three monosyllables. This chapter contains the following parts: - 1. We have here blessed promises of the latter-day glory.

They rejoice in Christ Jesus, and the sorrows and signs of their convictions are made to flee away by the power of divine consolations.
