Amos 5:25 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 5:25

Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings
No; they were not offered to God, but to devils, to the golden calf, and to the host of heaven: so their fathers did in the wilderness forty years;
where sacrifices were omitted during that time, a round number for a broken one, it being about thirty eight years; and these their children were imitators of them, and offered sacrifice to idols too, and therefore deserved punishment as they: even ye, O house of Israel?
the ten tribes, who are here particularly charged and threatened; (See Gill on Acts 7:42).

Amos 5:25 In-Context

23 Eloigne de moi le bruit de tes cantiques; Je n'écoute pas le son de tes luths.
24 Mais que la droiture soit comme un courant d'eau, Et la justice comme un torrent qui jamais ne tarit.
25 M'avez-vous fait des sacrifices et des offrandes Pendant les quarante années du désert, maison d'Israël?...
26 Emportez donc la tente de votre roi, Le piédestal de vos idoles, L'étoile de votre Dieu Que vous vous êtes fabriqué!
27 Et je vous emmènerai captifs au delà de Damas, Dit l'Eternel, dont le nom est le Dieu des armées.
