From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Highway
a raised road for public use Such roads were not found in
Palestine; hence the force of the language used to describe the
return of the captives and the advent of the Messiah (Isa.
11:16; 35:8; 40:3; 62:10) under the figure of the preparation of
