1 | Still Struggling with the meaning... | Matt 9:13 | SMO | 150206 | ||
I have still been struggling in pulling this verse apart. I can't see the real meaning behind, : 'I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT SACRIFICE,' is that Jesus saying he wants mercy/compassion and not sacrifice? Or is that the question we must ask God? And what exactly is this 'sacrifice' that he mentions...? |

2 | Still Struggling with the meaning... | Matt 9:13 | Makarios | 151138 | ||
Greetings SMO, In Matthew 9:13 when Jesus says "Go and learn what this means: "I desire mercy and not sacrifice", I personally interpret this as saying: "Don't just follow the requirements of the law because it is required of you, but do what is right to others out of the love and compassion from your heart." That is how I would best explain that verse. Blessings to you, Makarios |
