Messiah exhorts the godly after His example (Isaiah 49:4-5; Isaiah 42:4) when in circumstances of trial ("darkness," Isaiah 47:5), to trust in the arm of Jehovah alone.
Who is, etc.—that is, Whosoever (Judges 7:3).
obeyeth . . . servant—namely, Messiah. The godly "honor the Son, even as they honor the Father" (John 5:23).
darkness— (Micah 7:8-9). God never had a son who was not sometimes in the dark. For even Christ, His only Son, cried out, "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?"
light—rather, "splendor"; bright sunshine; for the servant of God is never wholly without "light" [VITRINGA]. A godly man's way may be dark, but his end shall be peace and light. A wicked man's way may be bright, but his end shall be utter darkness (Psalms 112:4; Psalms 97:11; Psalms 37:24).
let him trust in the name of the Lord—as Messiah did (Isaiah 50:8-9).
