Acts 28:25 Context
23And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging, to whom he expounded and testified the kingdome of God, perswading them concerning Iesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the Prophets, from morning till euening. 24And some beleeued the things which were spoken, and some beleeued not. 25And when they agreed not among themselues, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the holy Ghost by Esaias the Prophet, vnto our fathers, 26Saying, Goe vnto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall heare, and shall not vnderstand, and seeing ye shall see, and not perceiue. 27For the heart of this people is waxed grosse, and their eares are dull of hearing, and their eyes haue they closed, lest they should with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstand with their heart, and should bee conuerted, and I should heale them.

People's Bible Notes for Acts 28:25
Ac 28:25-28 Well spake the Holy Spirit by Isaiah the prophet. The passage quoted is found in Isa 6:9,10. It is quoted six times: in the Gospels (Mt 13:14,15 Mr 4:12 Lu 8:10 Joh 12:40), here in Acts, and in Romans (Ro 11:7). No other Old Testament passage is so often quoted in the New Testament, and it is always applied to Jewish unbelief. The terrible prediction of the stubborn, willful unbelief of the nation was fulfilled in Isaiah's time, in the time of Christ, in that of his apostles, and eighteen centuries of Jewish history illustrate the same fact to our times. For notes on the passage, see Mt 13:14-17. These are the final "one word" of Paul to the Jews before beginning his work among the Gentiles in Rome.
