Romans 10:20

Romans 10:20

18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:
^a“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the world.”

19 But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:
^a“I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,
I will move you to anger by a ^bfoolish nation.”

20 But Isaiah is very bold and says:
^a“I was found by those who did not seek Me;
I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”

21 But to Israel he says:
^a“All day long I have stretched out My hands
To a disobedient and contrary people.”

But Esaias is very bold, and saith—that is, is still plainer, and goes even the length of saying.

I was found of them that sought me not—until I sought them.

I was made—"became"

manifest unto them that asked not after me—until the invitation from Me came to them. That the calling of the Gentiles was meant by these words of the prophet (Isaiah 65:1) is manifest from what immediately follows, "I said, Behold Me, behold Me, unto a nation that was not called by My name."
