A Covenant and Light Who Opens Blind Eyes

Isaiah’s Servant is appointed as a covenant for the people and light to the nations, opening blind eyes and freeing prisoners.

Isaiah 42:6–7

6I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;

7To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, [and] them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
