because of the sins with which they made him to serve, ( Isaiah 43:24 ) .

Yeshayah 1:14 In-Context

14 Your Rosh Chodesh and your Mo’adim My Nefesh hateth; they are a burden unto Me; I am weary to bear them.
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide Mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make many tefillah, I will not hear; your hands are full of dahmim.
16 Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before Mine eyes; cease to do evil;
