And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
When they couldn't agree with each other and started leaving, Paul dropped one final truth bomb: 'The Holy Spirit nailed it when he spoke through the prophet Isaiah to our ancestors.'
Sometimes you just have to let the truth speak for itself and let people walk away with it.
📚 Historical Context
In the Book of Acts, Paul is in Rome as a prisoner, meeting with Jewish leaders to explain the Gospel and his faith in Jesus as the Messiah. After a discussion on the scriptures, the Jews become divided and cannot agree among themselves about Paul's teachings. Paul then quotes from the prophet Isaiah, emphasizing that the Holy Spirit had long ago warned their ancestors about such unbelief through the prophet's words.
