“When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts? to appear: Heb. to be seen”
Isaiah 1:12 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 1:12
God rejects formalistic worship divorced from covenant faithfulness. The rhetorical question 'Who has required this at your hand?' exposes the irony: Israel performs temple rituals while violating the moral law these ceremonies symbolize. God desires obedience over sacrifice (1 Samuel 15:22), anticipating Christ's condemnation of external religion without heart transformation (Matthew 15:8-9). This underscores the Reformed emphasis on true worship flowing from regenerate hearts.
