Gill's Notes on the Bible
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:
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.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And he said ... - The expressions which follow are those which denote hardness of heart and blindness of mind. They would hear the words of the prophet, but they would not understand him. They were so obstinately bent on iniquity that they would neither believe nor regard him. This shows the spirit with which ministers must deliver the message of God. It is their business to deliver the message, though they should know that it will neither be understood nor believed.
Hear ye indeed - Hebrew ‘In hearing, hear.’ This is a mode of expressing emphasis. This passage is quoted in Matthew 13:14; see thenote at that place.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
