Amos 4:5

Listen to Amos 4:5
5 Faites fumer vos offrandes d'action de grâces avec du levain; proclamez les offrandes volontaires et publiez-les; car c'est là ce que vous aimez, enfants d'Israël, dit le Seigneur, l'Éternel.

Amos 4:5 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 4:5

And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven
Which some observe was contrary to the law, which forbids all leaven in a meat offering; or "burning" it in any offering, ( Leviticus 2:11 ) ; which the word F20 here used suggests was done by these idolaters, as well as eaten by them, their priests not liking to eat unleavened bread; but; though it was forbidden in the meat offering, was allowed, yea, ordered, with the sacrifice of thanksgiving, ( Leviticus 7:13 ) . So Abarbinel understands it here, as what was according, to law, but ironically commanded to be offered to idols: and proclaim [and] publish the free offerings;
let all know of them when you make your freewill offerings, and invite them to partake of them: for this liketh you, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord God;
or ye love to offer such sacrifices to your idols, rather than to the Lord God; preferring these to him, and delighting more in the worship of them than of him.

Amos 4:5 In-Context

3 Vous sortirez par les brèches, chacune devant soi, et vous serez jetées vers la forteresse, dit l'Éternel.
4 Allez à Béthel, et péchez; à Guilgal, et péchez davantage! Apportez vos sacrifices dès le matin, et vos dîmes tous les trois jours!
5 Faites fumer vos offrandes d'action de grâces avec du levain; proclamez les offrandes volontaires et publiez-les; car c'est là ce que vous aimez, enfants d'Israël, dit le Seigneur, l'Éternel.
6 Et moi, je vous ai rendu les dents nettes dans toutes vos villes, et j'ai fait manquer le pain dans toutes vos demeures; et vous n'êtes pas revenus à moi, dit l'Éternel.
7 Je vous ai aussi refusé la pluie, quand il restait encore trois mois jusqu'à la moisson; j'ai fait pleuvoir sur une ville, et je n'ai pas fait pleuvoir sur une autre ville; un champ a reçu la pluie, et un autre champ, sur lequel il n'a point plu, a séché;
