Isaiah 1:14 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 1:14

Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth,
&c.] The Targum is,

``my Word abhorreth;''

the Messiah, the essential Word. These are the same as before. They are a trouble unto me;
as they were kept and observed, either when they should not, or in a manner unbecoming: I am weary to bear [them];
because of the sins with which they made him to serve, ( Isaiah 43:24 ) .

Isaiah 1:14 In-Context

12 Who asked you to bring me all this when you come to worship me? Who asked you to do all this tramping around in my Temple?

13 It's useless to bring your offerings. I am disgusted with the smell of the incense you burn. I cannot stand your New Moon Festivals, your Sabbaths, and your religious gatherings; they are all corrupted by your sins.

14 I hate your New Moon Festivals and holy days; they are a burden that I am tired of bearing.

15 "When you lift your hands in prayer, I will not look at you. No matter how much you pray, I will not listen, for your hands are covered with blood.

16 Wash yourselves clean. Stop all this evil that I see you doing. Yes, stop doing evil
