People's Commentary (NT)
Acts 28:25-28
Well spake the Holy Spirit by Isaiah the prophet. The passage quoted
is found in Isaiah 6:9. It is quoted six times: in the Gospels
(Matthew 13:14 Mr 4:12 Lu 8:10 Joh 12:40), here in Acts, and in Romans
(Romans 11:7). No other Old Testament passage is so often quoted in the
New Testament, and it is always applied to Jewish unbelief. The
terrible prediction of the stubborn, willful unbelief of the nation was
fulfilled in Isaiah's time, in the time of Christ, in that of his
apostles, and eighteen centuries of Jewish history illustrate the same
fact to our times. For notes on the passage, see Matthew 13:14-17. These
are the final "one word" of Paul to the Jews before beginning his work
among the Gentiles in Rome.
