One super interesting thing about Scripture is how sometimes prophecies supply not just the nuts and bolts of what will happen, but the psychological coloring.

In the Gospels:

Luke 9:41 Jesus answered, “You faithless and perverse generation, how much longer must I be with you and bear with you?” Mark 6:5–6 And he could do no deed of power there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and cured them. And he was amazed at their unbelief. Mark 8:21 Then he said to them, “Do you not yet understand?” Matt. 13:58 And he did not do many deeds of power there, because of their unbelief. John 14:9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip?"

This is foreshadowed in Isaiah’s description of the Servant with more emotional poignancy:

Isaiah 49:4 But I said, “I have labored in vain; I have spent my strength for nothing and vanity; yet surely my right is with the Lord, and my recompense with my God.”

That feeling of the futility. Jesus identifies with those days we’re just spinning our wheels.
