Exegesis
The verse opens with the prepositional citation formula en to nomo {ἐν τῷ νόμῳ | en tôi nómō} “in the Law,” followed by the perfect impersonal verb gegraptai {γέγραπται | gégraptai} “it has been written,” which presents Scripture as a fixed, authoritative word.
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 .
