How are they to call on one they have not believed in? And how are they to believe in one they have not heard of? And how are they to hear without someone preaching to them?

but as it is written: “Those who were not told about him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.”

as it is written, “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that would not see and ears that would not hear, to this very day.”

But I ask, have they not heard? Yes, they have: Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
