Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 7. That they might go to a city of habitation. ] God stirred up the heart of Cyrus to give them liberty to return to their own land: and ZerubbHebel, Ezra, and Nehemiah, at different times, brought many of them back to Judea.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-9 - In these verses there is reference to the deliverance from Egypt, an perhaps that from Babylon: but the circumstances of travellers in thos countries are also noted. It is scarcely possible to conceive the horrors suffered by the hapless traveller, when crossing the trackles sands, exposed to the burning rays of the sum. The words describe their case whom the Lord has redeemed from the bondage of Satan; who pas through the world as a dangerous and dreary wilderness, often ready to faint through troubles, fears, and temptations. Those who hunger an thirst after righteousness, after God, and communion with him, shall be filled with the goodness of his house, both in grace and glory.
