Isaiah 43:23
_ _ small cattle — rather, the “lamb” or “kid,” required by the law to be daily offered to God (Exodus 29:38; Numbers 28:3).
_ _ sacrifices — offered any way; whereas the Hebrew for “holocaust,” or “burnt offering,” denotes that which ascends as an offering consumed by fire.
_ _ I have not caused thee to serve — that is, to render the service of a slave (Matthew 11:30; Romans 8:15; 1 John 4:18; 1 John 5:3).
_ _ offering — bloodless (Leviticus 2:1, Leviticus 2:2).
_ _ wearied — antithetical to Isaiah 43:22, “Thou hast been weary of Me.” Though God in the law required such offerings, yet not so as to “weary” the worshipper, or to exact them in cases where, as in the Babylonish captivity, they were physically unable to render them; God did not require them, save in subordination to the higher moral duties (Psalms 50:8-14; Psalms 51:16, Psalms 51:17; Micah 6:3, Micah 6:6-8). |
Isaiah 43:23
Honoured — Either thou didst neglect sacrificing to me; or didst perform it merely out of custom or didst dishonour me, and pollute thy sacrifices by thy wicked life. Although — Altho' God had not laid such heavy burdens upon them, nor required such costly offerings, as might give them cause to be weary, nor such as idolaters did freely perform in the service of their idols. |
Isaiah 43:23
Thou (z) hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.
(z) Meaning, in true faith and obedience. |
- hast not:
Amos 5:25 Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
Malachi 1:13-14 Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness [is it]! and ye have snuffed at it, saith the LORD of hosts; and ye brought [that which was] torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith the LORD. ... But cursed [be] the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the Lord a corrupt thing: for I [am] a great King, saith the LORD of hosts, and my name [is] dreadful among the heathen.

Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.
