Treacherous Dealigs
10) Have we not all one Father? Has not one God created us? Why do you deal treacherously with one another By profaining the covenant of the fathers? 11) Judah has dealt treacherously, And an abomination has been committed, in Israel and in Jrusalem, for Judah has profained The Lord's institution which He loves: He has married the daughter of a foreign god. 12) May the Lord cut off from the tents of Jacob The man who does this, being awake and aware,Yet who brings an offering to the Lord of hosts!
Commentary
Malachi 2:10-12

Dishonoring God's Goodness
13) And this is the second thing you do: You cover the alter of the Lord with tears, With weeping and crying; so He does not regard the offering anymore, Nor receive it with goodwill from your hands. 14) Yet you say, "For what reason?" Because the Lord has been witness Between the wife of your youth, With whom you have dealt treacherously; Yet she is your companion And your wife by covenant. 15) But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one? He seeks godly offspring. Therefore take heed to your spirit, And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth. 16) "For the Lord God of Israel says That He hates divorce, For it covers one's garment with violence," Says the Lord of hosts. "Therfore take heed to your spirit, That you do not deal treacherously>"
Commentary
Malachi 2:13-16

False Words
17) You have wearied the Lord with your words; Yet you say, "In what way have we wearied Him?" In that you say, "Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the Lord, And He delights in them," Or, "Where is the God of justice?"
Commentary
Malachi 2:17
II Timothy 2:15: "Be dillgent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
