Thematic Bible: Without obedience, worthless
Thematic Bible
Sacrifices » Without obedience, worthless
Samuel said,“Has the Lord as great a delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
As in obedience to the voice of the Lord?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,
And to heed [is better] than the fat of rams.
As in obedience to the voice of the Lord?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,
And to heed [is better] than the fat of rams.
and to love Him with all the heart and with all the understanding and with all the strength, and to [unselfishly] love one’s neighbor as oneself, is much more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
To do righteousness and justice
Is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice [for wrongs repeatedly committed].
