Excerpt from The Miscellaneous Works of the Rev. Matthew Henry, V. D. M, Vol. 2 of 2: Containing in Addition to Those Heretofore Published, Numerous Sermons
Some expositors apply the year, here said to be crowned with God's goodness, to the year of gospel grace, in which redemption was purchased for, and published to, a poor captive world, which is called, The acceptable year of the Lord. That was indeed the year of God's goodness, when the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward men appeared so clear, so bright; that was indeed a crowned year, not to mention the crowns of common years, the fruitful fields and flowery meads. Even the glory of that year in which Israel was brought out of Egypt.
