Greek Commentary for 1 Corinthians 14:21
Isaiah 28:11. Freely quoted. [source]
From Isaiah 28:11, Isaiah 28:12. The quotation does not correspond exactly either to the Hebrew or to the Septuagint. Heb., with stammerings of lip. Sept., By reason of contemptuous words of lips. Paul omits the Heb.: This is the rest, give ye rest to the weary, and this is the repose. Sept.: This is the rest to him who is hungry, and this is the ruin. The point of the quotation is that speech in strange tongues was a chastisement for the unbelief of God's ancient people, by which they were made to hear His voice “speaking in the harsh commands of the foreign invader.” So in the Corinthian Church, the intelligible revelation of God has not been properly received.

Periphrastic perfect passive indicative of γραπω graphō (as in John 2:17) in place of the usual γεγραπται gegraptai “Does it not stand written?” In your law From Psalm 82:6. The term νομος nomos (law) applying here to the entire O.T. as in John 12:34; John 15:25; Romans 3:19; 1 Corinthians 14:21. Aleph D Syr-sin. omit υμων humōn but needlessly. We have it already so from Jesus in John 8:17. They posed as the special custodians of the O.T. I said Recitative οτι hoti before a direct quotation like our quotation marks. Ειπα Eipa is a late second aorist form of indicative with -α a instead of -ον on Ye are gods Another direct quotation after ειπα eipa but without οτι hoti The judges of Israel abused their office and God is represented in Psalm 82:6 as calling them “gods” (τεοι theoi elohim) because they were God‘s representatives. See the same use of elohim in Exodus 21:6; Exodus 22:9, Exodus 22:28. Jesus meets the rabbis on their own ground in a thoroughly Jewish way. [source]
In a different sense, referring to the O.T. For a similar double sense see Romans 3:19. For νόμος as a designation of the O.T. generally, see 1 Corinthians 14:21; John 10:24; John 11:34; John 15:25. [source]
