Isaiah 48:8
_ _ heardest not — repeated, as also “knewest not,” from Isaiah 48:7.
_ _ from that time — Omit “that.” “Yea, from the first thine ear did not open itself,” namely, to obey them [Rosenmuller]. “To open the ear” denotes obedient attention (Isaiah 50:5); or, “was not opened” to receive them; that is, they were not declared by Me to thee previously, since, if thou hadst been informed of them, such is thy perversity, thou couldst not have been kept in check [Maurer]. In the former view, the sense of the words following is, “For I knew that, if I had not foretold the destruction of Babylon so plainly that there could be no perverting of it, thou wouldst have perversely ascribed it to idols, or something else than to Me” (Isaiah 48:5). Thus they would have relapsed into idolatry, to cure them of which the Babylonian captivity was sent: so they had done (Exodus 32:4). After the return, and ever since, they have utterly forsaken idols.
_ _ wast called — as thine appropriate appellation (Isaiah 9:6).
_ _ from the womb — from the beginning of Israel’s national existence (Isaiah 44:2). |

I knew — I knew all these cautions were necessary to cure thine infidelity. Called — Justly, thou wast indeed such. |
Isaiah 48:8
Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time [that] thy ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the (i) womb.
(i) From the time that I brought you of Egypt: for that deliverance was as the birth of the Church. |

For this people's heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and should understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
John 12:39-40 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, ... He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with [their] eyes, nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
