NETBible

so that the word¹ of Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled. He said,² “Lord, who has believed our message, and to whom has the arm of the Lord³ been revealed?”⁴

NET Notes

¹tn Or “message.”

²tn Grk “who said.”

³tn “The arm of the Lord” is an idiom for “God’s great power” (as exemplified through Jesus’ miraculous signs). This response of unbelief is interpreted by the author as a fulfillment of the prophetic words of Isaiah (Isa 53:1). The phrase ὁ βραχίων κυρίου (Jo braciwn kuriou) is a figurative reference to God’s activity and power which has been revealed in the sign-miracles which Jesus has performed (compare the previous verse).

⁴sn A quotation from Isa 53:1.
