This book was first published in 1985 by Hamish Hamilton, London. “He who slaughters an ox is like one who kills a man he who sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck he who presents a grain offering, like one who offers pig's blood he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol. But this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.

All these things my hand has made, and so all these things came to be, declares the Lord. ESV / 2 helpful votes Helpful Not Helpful
