John 12:40 CPDV

³⁸  so that the word of the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled, which says: 'Lord, who has believed in our hearing? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?'

³⁹  Because of this, they were not able to believe, for Isaiah said again:

⁴⁰  'He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, so that they may not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted: and then I would heal them.'

⁴¹  These things Isaiah said, when he saw his glory and was speaking about him.

⁴²  Yet truly, many of the leaders also believed in him. But because of the Pharisees, they did not confess him, so that they would not be cast out of the synagogue.
