instanceof

Hi, could anyone tell me why this code won't compile?

    public boolean isOf(Class clazz, Object obj){
        if(obj instanceof clazz){
            return true;
        }else{
            return false;
        }
    }

Why I can't pass a class variable to instanceOf?

Thanks in advance.
