Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
From far, from the east.14The phrase From far, is explained to refer to The east, because north and west are directly mentioned, and Sinim is supposed by I. E. to be in the south. Where three sides are mentioned, it may be expected, that the fourth will likewise be found.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
From the north, from Babylon.14aBabylon is here described to be in the north; but in his remark on 43:5, I. E. says, that it is in the east. It was perhaps north-east of Palestine. See c. xliii. Note 2a.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
מארץ סינים From the land of Sinim. A land near Egypt. The name סינים is perhaps connected with סנה bush.16This remark seems to be intended as a hint where to place the land of Sinim, indicating that Mount Horeb is a part of it; because simply to say, that סינים means perhaps bushes would be quite superfluous, and moreover, I. E. would in that case rather have said והוא מגזרת סנה it is derived from סנה ‘bush,’ than הסנה מזאת הגזרה, the word סנה is of the same root.
