Amos 5: 21-24
(Peshitta Holy Bible Translated)
I have hated and I have despised your feasts
and I will not smell your Feast of Pentecost
22 Even if burning peace offering will go up to me with your offerings,
I shall not be pleased, and on the best of your fattened beasts I will not look
23 Remove from me the sound of your singing and the music of your harp;
I shall not hear them again
24 And judgment shall be brought forth as the waters
and righteousness as a mighty torrent

summary:

In these verses, God expresses His disdain for hollow religious practices: “I hate, I despise your feasts! I cannot stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.” This teaches us that God desires genuine worship from the heart, not mere rituals. Our faith should be authentic, driven by love and devotion rather than obligation. It’s a call to examine our motives and ensure our worship is sincere.
(Bible Hub)

The passage emphasizes that genuine worship must be accompanied by acts of justice and care for the less fortunate, highlighting the importance of aligning worship with ethical living.

Implications

• Disconnection Between Worship and Life: The Israelites performed rituals but failed to live out the principles of justice and righteousness in their daily lives. This disconnect is what God condemns.
• Moral Responsibility: The text underscores that worship is not merely about rituals but must reflect a commitment to social ethics and care for the less fortunate. True worship involves active participation in justice and mercy.

This passage serves as a reminder that sincere worship is inseparable from ethical living and social responsibility.
