Thematic Bible: Who the lord made contemptible

For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth. For he is the messenger of LORD of hosts. But ye are turned aside out of the way. Ye have caused many to stumble in the law. Ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, says LORD of hosts. Therefore I also have made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have had respect of persons in the law.
