Charles Spurgeon Commentary Isaiah 51:11

"And the ransomed of Jehovah shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain gladness and joy; [and] sorrow and sighing shall flee away." — Isaiah 51:11 (ASV)

Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and come with singing unto Zion;—

Just as they came out of Egypt in ancient times, and with singing and with sound of timbrel, marched through the Red Sea, so shall God bring his people with singing unto Zion;—

And everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.

Just as Pharaoh turned his chariot to flee from Israel, and the depths covered him and all his Egyptians, so sorrow and mourning shall flee away from the redeemed of the Lord.
