<p>10:20 <i>And Isaiah is very bold, and said: I was found by those that did not seek Me; I showed myself to those who were not asking for Me</i>- Paul, having the same Divine Spirit as Isaiah, sensed that Isaiah spoke those inspired words in a &quot;very bold&quot; manner, daring manner (s.w. 5:7). See on :18. The fact Gentiles found God in Christ when they were not seeking Him is an exemplification of the ideas of predestination and calling which have been introduced in chapter 8 as the supreme example of God's grace. The element of calling, of finding God when we were not looking for Him, is an example of that higher hand in our lives which is of grace alone. &quot;Seek and you shall find&quot; is here as it were subverted. It's not that God is hiding behind a set of cards or has set up the Bible as a riddle between Him and men, which few figure out. He shows Himself to those who aren't even seeking. This is grace indeed.</p>
