Who is among you that fears the LORD, that obeys the voice of his servant, that walks in darkness, and has no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and rely upon his God.

Light. The faithful are exhorted to take courage, while the Romans will destroy the rebellious Jews, (ver. 11.; Calmet) and the wicked shall dwell in hell fire. (Menochius)
By the mouth of Isaiah also [God] has asked concerning him, “Who is there among you that hears God? Let him hear the voice of his Son.” When, therefore, he here presents him with the words, “This is my beloved Son,” this clause is of course understood, “who I have promised.” For if he once promised and afterwards says, “This is he,” it is suitable conduct for one who accomplishes his purpose that he should utter his voice in proof of the promise that he had formerly made; but unsuitable in one who is amenable to the retort, “Can you, indeed, have a right to say, ‘This is my son,’ concerning whom you have given us no previous information, any more than you have favored us with a revelation about your own prior existence?” - "Against Marcion 4.22"
