But Esaias is very bold, and saith,.... The apostle here produces another testimony in proof of this, that the Israelites must needs have some knowledge of this truth, the calling of the Gentiles; since a famous prophet of theirs, Isaiah, also spake out with great freedom; he did not mince the matter, or cover it with dark sayings, but with all plainness and perspicuity, and with great courage...

The dissolving of the peculiar church-state of the Jews, and the rejection of that polity by the repealing of their ceremonial law, the vacating of all the institutions of it, the abolishing of their priesthood, the burning of their temple, and the taking away of their place and nation, and in their room the substituting and erecting of a catholic church-state among the Gentile nations, though to...

But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.

Even you may be saved, for it is written, “I was found of them that sought me not.” Rom_10:20. I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. Here is the manifestation of sovereign grace, God choosing and saving whom he wills,...
