1 Corinthians 14:
20 Brethren, do not be children in understanding; however, in malice be infants,
but in understanding be mature.
21 In the law it is written:
With men of other tongues and other lips
I will speak to this people;
And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me.
Why does Paul quote Isaiah 28:11 here?
Isaiah 28:
9 Whom will he teach knowledge? And whom will he make to understand the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just drawn from the breasts?
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people,
12 To whom He said, This is the rest with which You may cause the weary to rest, and,
This is the refreshing; yet they would not hear.
13 But the word of the Lord was to them, precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little, that they might go and fall backward, and be broken and snared and caught.
