Empty Rituals and the Call to Justice
Isaiah 1:10-17
10
Hear what ADONAI says, you rulers of S'dom! Listen to God's Torah, you people of 'Amora!
11
"Why are all those sacrifices offered to me?" asks ADONAI. "I'm fed up with burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fattened animals! I get no pleasure from the blood of bulls, lambs and goats!
12
Yes, you come to appear in my presence; but who asked you to do this, to trample through my courtyards?
13
Stop bringing worthless grain offerings! They are like disgusting incense to me! Rosh-Hodesh, Shabbat, calling convocations - I can't stand evil together with your assemblies!
14
Everything in me hates your Rosh-Hodesh and your festivals; they are a burden to me - I'm tired of putting up with them!
15
"When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; no matter how much you pray, I won't be listening; because your hands are covered with blood.
16
"Wash yourselves clean! Get your evil deeds out of my sight! Stop doing evil,
17
learn to do good! Seek justice, relieve the oppressed, defend orphans, plead for the widow.
