Isaías 1:15

Listen to Isaías 1:15
15 Y cuando extendáis vuestras manos, esconderé mis ojos de vosotros; sí, aunque multipliquéis las oraciones, no escucharé. Vuestras manos están llenas de sangre.

Isaías 1:15 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 1:15

And when ye spread forth your hands
That is, in prayer, this being a prayer gesture: hence the Targum paraphrases it,

``and when the priests spread out their hands to pray for you.''
I will hide mine eyes from you;
will not look upon them, nor regard their prayer; see ( Lamentations 3:42 ) yea, when ye make many prayers;
as the Scribes and Pharisees did in Christ's time, and thought to be heard for their much speaking, like the Gentiles, ( Matthew 6:7 ) I will not hear;
so as to give an answer, or fulfil their requests: the reason follows, your hands are full of blood;
of the prophets of the Lord, of Christ and his followers, whom they put to death.

Isaías 1:15 In-Context

13 No traigáis más vuestras vanas ofrendas, el incienso me es abominación. Luna nueva y día de reposo, el convocar asambleas: ¡no tolero iniquidad y asamblea solemne!
14 Vuestras lunas nuevas y vuestras fiestas señaladas las aborrece mi alma; se han vuelto una carga para mí, estoy cansado de soportarlas.
15 Y cuando extendáis vuestras manos, esconderé mis ojos de vosotros; sí, aunque multipliquéis las oraciones, no escucharé. Vuestras manos están llenas de sangre.
16 Lavaos, limpiaos, quitad la maldad de vuestras obras de delante de mis ojos; cesad de hacer el mal,
17 aprended a hacer el bien, buscad la justicia, reprended al opresor, defended al huérfano, abogad por la viuda.
