NASB | 1 Corinthians 2:9 but just as it is written, "THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 2:9 but just as it is written [in Scripture], "THINGS WHICH THE EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND THE EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND WHICH HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM [who hold Him in affectionate reverence, who obey Him, and who gratefully recognize the benefits that He has bestowed]." [Is 64:4; 65:17] |
Subject: Corinthians vs. Isaiah |
Bible Note: Hi terrib, Another comparison verse for 1 Cor 2:9 might be Isaiah 6:9. Here Isaiah volunteers to go to the people and the (triune) God said, "Go and tell this people: 'Keep on listening, but do not perceive; Keep on looking, but do not understand. 10 Render the hearts of this people insensitive, Their ears dull, And their eyes dim, Lest they see with their eyes, Hear with their ears, Understand with their hearts, And return and be healed." However, these things are revealed through the Spirit, or through His Spirit. The contrast between Isaiah who was sent and the Lord of glory who was sent is seen. Jesus spoke in parables and hidden wisdom these spiritual things and it is necessary to come to Him to be healed. Matthew 13:13, "Therefore I speak to them in parables; because while seeing they do not see, and while hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14 And in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says, 'You will keep on hearing, but will not understand; And you will keep on seeing, but will not perceive; 15 For the heart of this people has become dull, And with their ears they scarcely hear, And they have closed their eyes Lest they should see with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart and return, And **I should heal them.' 16 "But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear. 17 For truly I say to you, that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it; and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it." From the heart, Ray |
