Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 29:18

_ _ deaf ... blind — (Compare Matthew 11:5). The spiritually blind, etc., are chiefly meant; “the book,” as Revelation is called pre-eminently, shall be no longer “sealed,” as is described (Isaiah 29:11), but the most unintelligent shall hear and see (Isaiah 35:5).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 29:17-24.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 29:18

Shall see — Being, by God's grace, brought out of gross, ignorance and wickedness, unto a clear and saving knowledge of the truth.
