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.
