NASB | 1 Samuel 15:23 "For rebellion is as the sin of divination, And insubordination is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He has also rejected you from being king." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Samuel 15:23 "For rebellion is as [serious as] the sin of divination (fortune-telling), And disobedience is as [serious as] false religion and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He also has rejected you as king." |
Bible Question: I once read in the bible (OT) where it says that all rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. Can someone explain this to me? I know that not all sin is as the sin of witchcraft because not all sin is intentionally against God, but I am just looking for a better understanding for this scripture. |
Bible Answer: Verse 22 says "Has the LORD as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams" Read the context ... look at what Saul did and didn't do. |
