Commentary on Isaiah 5:12
The indictment of feasting with musical instruments while disregarding 'the work of the LORD' and 'the operation of his hands' critiques spiritual complacency masked by religious festivities. Music and wine aren't inherently wrong, but when they distract from perceiving God's providential working and impending judgment, they become occasions for hardening. This anticipates Amos 6:1-7's woe against the complacent and Jesus' parable of the wedding feast where invitees made light of the invitation (Matthew 22:5).
