Exegesis
The coordinating kai with the contracted negative oud {καὶ οὐδʼ | kaí oud} plus the adverb houtos {οὕτως | hoútōs} yields “and not even so,” an intensified contrastive clause introducing eisakousontai {εἰσακούσονταί | eisakoúsontai} “they will listen,” whose deponent middle form stresses their future, culpable refusal.
In context — 1 Corinthians 14:21
In the Law it is written: “In other tongues and in the lips of others I will speak to this people, and not even so will they listen to Me,” says the Lord .
