Isaiah 7:13

7:13 So Isaiah replied, ¹  “Pay attention, ²  family ³  of David. ⁴  Do you consider it too insignificant to try the patience of men? Is that why you are also trying the patience of my God?

Isaiah 63:10

63:10 But they rebelled and offended ⁵  his holy Spirit, ⁶ 

so he turned into an enemy

and fought against them.

Ephesians 4:30

4:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

Hebrews 3:15-17

3:15 As it says, ⁷  “Oh, that today you would listen as he speaks! ⁸  Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” ⁹  3:16 For which ones heard and rebelled? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under Moses’ leadership? ¹⁰  3:17 And against whom was God ¹¹  provoked for forty years? Was it not those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness? ¹² 

¹ tn Heb “and he said.” The subject is unexpressed, but the reference to “my God” at the end of the verse indicates the prophet is speaking.

² tn The verb is second plural in form, because the prophet addresses the whole family of David. He continues to use the plural in v. 14 (with one exception, see the notes on that verse), but then switches back to the second singular (addressing Ahaz specifically) in vv. 16-17.

³ tn Heb “house.” See the note at v. 2.

⁴ sn The address to the “house of David” is designed to remind Ahaz and his royal court of the protection promised to them through the Davidic covenant. The king’s refusal to claim God’s promise magnifies his lack of faith.

⁵ tn Or “grieved, hurt the feelings of.”

⁶ sn The phrase “holy Spirit” occurs in the OT only here (in v. 11 as well) and in Ps 51:11 (51:13 HT), where it is associated with the divine presence.

⁷ tn Grk “while it is said.”

⁸ tn Grk “today if you hear his voice.”

⁹ sn A quotation from Ps 95:7b-8.

¹⁰ tn Grk “through Moses.”

¹¹ tn Grk “he”; in the translation the referent (God) has been specified for clarity.

¹² sn An allusion to God’s judgment pronounced in Num 14:29, 32.
