Isaiah 6:9

9 And he said, Go thou, and thou shalt say to this people, Ye hearing hear, and ye do not understand; and see ye the prophesy, and do not ye know. (And he said, Go thou, and thou shalt say to this people, Hearing ye may hear, but ye shall not understand; and ye may see the prophesy, but ye shall not know, or not understand, its meaning.)

Isaiah 6:9 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 6:9

And he said, go, and tell this people
What is and will be their case and condition, as follows: hear ye indeed;
the words of the prophets sent unto them, yea, Christ himself incarnate preaching among them; the great Prophet Moses said should be raised up unto them: but understand not;
neither that he is the Messiah, nor the doctrines delivered by him; which were spoken to them in parables; see ( Matthew 13:13-15 ) : and see ye indeed:
the miracles wrought by him, as raising the dead, cleansing the lepers, restoring sight to the blind, causing the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak: but perceive not;
that he is the Messiah, though all the characteristics pointed at in prophecy are upon him, and such miracles are done by him.

(Make thou blind the hearts of these people, and make thou deaf their ears, and close thou their eyes; lest peradventure they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and they turn, or be converted, and I make them whole/and they be healed.)

11 And I said, Lord, how long? And he said, Till [the] cities be made desolate, without dweller, and houses without man. And the land shall be left desert, (And I said, Lord, how long?
