Isaiah was sent to people who were not going to listen (Isaiah 6). Jesus was sent to people who were not going to listen, and He quoted Isaiah 6 to them (Matthew 13:14-15). Paul is in Rome in Acts 28, preaching to still another generation of Jews—who did not listen and obey. So, he quoted Isaiah 6 again. Isaiah 6:9-10 applies to anyone who treats God’s word that way. So, what did Isaiah, Jesus, and Paul do? They kept on preaching until they found people who would listen. Don’t stop reading at Acts 28:27, or you will miss it.
