A designated route for those who walk it · dominant
In Isaiah 35:8, the masculine singular absolute noun occurs in the clause announcing a highway and a way. The verse sets this route alongside holiness, excludes the unclean from passing over it, and says that those walking the way do not go astray; the APB renders the opening clause, "A highway will be there, and a way."
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Isaiah 35:8 the APB presents the clause with "A highway" and then "a way,", so the lemma's exact English counterpart cannot be isolated with certainty.
