Malaquías 2:13 Meaning and Commentary

Malachi 2:13

And this have ye done again
Or "in the second" F2 place; to their rejection and ill treatment of Christ they added their hypocritical prayers and tears, as follows: covering the altar of the Lord with tears and weeping, and with
crying out;
for the Messiah they vainly expect, pretending great humiliation for their sins: though some, as Kimchi and Aben Ezra, make the first evil to be their offering illegal sacrifices on the altar, complained of in the former chapter ( Malachi 1:1-14 ) ; and this second, their marrying strange wives, on account of which their lawful wives came into the house of God, and wept over the altar before the Lord, complaining of the injury that was done them: insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth
it with good will at your hand;
which expresses an utter rejection and abrogation of legal sacrifices; and which some make to be the reason of their covering the altar with tears and weeping: or the altar is represented as weeping, because sacrifice is no more offered upon it; see ( Daniel 9:27 ) ( Hosea 3:4 ) .

Malaquías 2:13 In-Context

11 Deslealmente ha obrado Judá, y una abominación se ha cometido en Israel y en Jerusalén; pues Judá ha profanado el santuario del SEÑOR, que El ama, y se ha casado con la hija de un dios extraño.
12 Que el SEÑOR extermine de las tiendas de Jacob al hombre que hace esto (sea testigo o defensor ) aunque presente una ofrenda al SEÑOR de los ejércitos.
13 Y esta otra cosa hacéis: cubrís el altar del SEÑOR de lágrimas, llantos y gemidos, porque El ya no mira la ofrenda ni la acepta con agrado de vuestra mano.
14 Y vosotros decís: "¿Por qué?" Porque el SEÑOR ha sido testigo entre tú y la mujer de tu juventud, contra la cual has obrado deslealmente, aunque ella es tu compañera y la mujer de tu pacto.
15 Pero ninguno que tenga un remanente del Espíritu lo ha hecho así. ¿Y qué hizo éste mientras buscaba una descendencia de parte de Dios? Prestad atención, pues, a vuestro espíritu; no seas desleal con la mujer de tu juventud.
