• In Psa 84:5-7, the 'ways' {v.5, ie., 'highways') of God's people lead through the valley of Baca {ie., Tears} to the Kingdom of God.
• In Isa 11:16; 19:23, during the Millennial Kingdom, a highway will be provided to facilitate the physical return of Israel's exiles, and the peaceful relationship with their neighbors.
• In Mat 7:13,14, the Lord warned His hearers to avoid the broad easy way whichs leads to destruction and lures people from the narrow way of life.
• In Isa 40:3-5, 'the voice' is that of John the Baptist, who prepared the highway for Christ's ministry at His first coming (Mat 3:1-3). At that time, Christ became 'the Way' for believers to approach God and also to walk with Him (Joh 14:6). When He returns, His glory will be revealed more fully.

• In that future day, even the simplest believer will not stray from 'the straight and narrow way,' for the Lord will be present with them, guiding them into all truth and protecting from all error.
• Today, the way of holiness is open to the believer, who walks in the Spirit (see Joh 14:6,15-23; 16:12,13; Rom 8:4). Yet, today, the believer must be watchful and prepared, for there are enemies and dangers (eg., Eph 6:10-18; 1Pet 5:8,9).
• In that future day, there will be no enemy lying in wait, to distract or devour the pilgrim on the way.

Puritan commentator, Richard Baxter, as quoted by JVMcGee:
"Hasten, O Saviour, the time of Thy return. Delay not, lest the living give up their hope. Delay not, lest earth shall grow like hell, and Thy Church shall be crumbled to dust. O hasten, that great resurrection day, when the graves that received but rottenness, and retain but dust shall return Thee glorious stars and suns. Thy desolate Bride saith, Come. The whole creation saith, Come, even so come, Lord Jesus. The whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain, waiting for the revealing of the sons of God." (cp. Rom 8:18-23; Rev 7:9-17; 21:4)
