Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And the Jews had light,.... Prosperity, as opposed to the darkness of adversity in which they had been, see Isa 8:22 , or lightsomeness and cheerfulness of spirit, as explained
by the two next words: and gladness and joy; at the good news of their deliverance, so unexpected by them; thus light is explained by gladness, Psa 97:11 and honour: among men; from their neighbours, who before were held in contempt, as a people doomed to destruction.
