Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

The Lord is well pleased, that they do not see; He will show His justice and exalt His law, so that all those that forsake it shall be afraid. This verse may also be connected with the next, thus : God showed His justice, and made those, that said of the prophet, that he is blind, robbed and spoiled, etc.
