This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The blind eyes; the eyes of their minds blinded with long ignorance, and deep prejudice, and inveterate error, and by the power and policy of the god of this world, 2Co_4:4, which nothing but the almighty power of God could cure.
The prisoners; sinners, unto are taken captive by the devil at his will, as we read, 2Ti_2:26, and as daily experience showeth, and who are enslaved and chained by their own lusts, and made free-men only by Christ, Joh_8:32,36. Compare this portion of Scripture with Isa_61:1, and both with Luk_4:17-21, where it is said to be fulfilled in and by Christ.
