Man's happiness is in God's favor Offer the sacrifices of the righteous This phrase calls believers to present offerings that are not merely ritualistic but are rooted in righteousness. The Hebrew word for "sacrifices" is "זֶבַח" (zevach), which traditionally refers to offerings made to God, often involving the shedding of blood. In the context of ancient Israel, sacrifices were a central part of worship, symbolizing atonement and devotion. However, the emphasis here is on the "righteous" nature of these sacrifices. The Hebrew word for "righteous" is "צַדִּיק" (tzaddik), which implies a life aligned with God's will. This suggests that God values the heart and intent behind the offering more than the offering itself. Historically, this reflects the prophetic call found throughout the Old Testament, where God desires mercy and justice over mere ritual (see Hosea 6:6). In a New Testament context, this can be seen as a call to live a life of holiness and integrity, offering oneself as a living sacrifice (Romans 12:1). and trust in the LORD Parallel Commentaries ...
