at_o dan_n and_o bethel_n thus_o they_o be_v heir_n of_o their_o father_n guilt_n and_o imitator_n of_o they_o in_o their_o idolatry_n the_o lord_n charge_v they_o here_o with_o their_o sin_n also_o

can_v this_o be_v true_a when_o we_o read_v that_o the_o israelite_n do_v sacrifice_n to_o god_n in_o the_o wilderness_n when_o the_o covenant_n be_v ratify_v they_o offer_v eucharistical_a

to_o think_v that_o god_n be_v delight_v as_o they_o be_v with_o music_n singing_n and_o a_o little_a formal_a sacrifice_v in_o the_o temple_n but_o the_o prophet_n tell_v they_o such_o carnal_a joy_n

with_o self-respect_n hence_o the_o prophet_n thunder_v out_o wrath_n and_o judgement_n against_o they_o for_o those_o that_o will_v not_o sincere_o sing_v to_o god_n in_o a_o time_n of_o grace_n
