The voice of him that cries in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
All Commentaries on Isaiah 40:3 Go To Isaiah 40
Cyril of Jerusalem
AD 386
While the heavenly powers rejoice, let the souls that are to be united to the spiritual bridegroom make themselves ready. For the voice is heard of one crying in the wilderness, “Prepare the way of the Lord.” For this is no light matter, no ordinary and indiscriminate union according to the flesh but the all-searching Spirit’s election according to faith.
