Commentary for Isaiah 62:10

Pass, pass through the portals Said the prophet, “Pass and return in the portals; turn the heart of the people to the proper path” [after Jonathan].

Go through, etc. Having mentioned the prosperity of the land for the sake of the mourners for Zion, who will enjoy it without anxiety, the prophet continues to describe, how the deliverance of Israel from his exile, and his return to his own land will be with honour; the princes of the nations will say Go through, etc. that is, go through the gates to proclaim in every place Prepare the way of the people, clear it of stones, lift up a standard throughout the whole world.

pave, pave the highway Heb. סֹלּוּ. Pave the road, batec lokemin in O.F., beat down the road. סֹלּוּ is the same root as מְסִלָּה.
