ISAIAH 1:11-17
What care I for the number of your sacrifices? says theLORD. I have had enough of whole-burnt rams and fatof fatlings; In the blood of calves, lambs and goats I findno pleasure. When you come in to visit me, who asksthese things of you? Trample my courts no more! Bringno more worthless offerings; your incense is loathsometo me. New moon and sabbath, calling of assemblies,octaves with wickedness: these I cannot bear. Yournew moons and festivals I detest; they weigh me down,
I tire of the load. When you spread out your hands, Iclose my eyes to you; Though you pray the more, I willnot listen. Your hands are full of blood! Washyourselves clean! Put away your misdeeds frombefore my eyes; cease doing evil; learn to do good.
Make justice your aim: redress the wronged, hear'

ISAIAH 58: 1-10Cry out full-throated and unsparingly, lift up your voice like a trumpet blast; Tell my
people their wickedness, and the house of Jacob their sins. They seek me dayafter day, and desire to know my ways, Like a nation that has done what is just
and not abandoned the law of their God; They ask me to declare what is due
them, pleased to gain access to God. "Why do we fast, and you do not see it?
afflict ourselves, and you take no note of it?" Lo, on your fast day you carry out
your own pursuits, and drive all your laborers. Yes, your fast ends in quarrelling
and fighting, striking with wicked claw. Would that today you might fast so as tomake your voice heard on high! Is this the manner of fasting I wish, of keeping a
day of penance: That a man bow his head like a reed, and lie in sackcloth and
ashes? Do you call this a fast, a day acceptable to the LORD? This, rather, is
the fasting that I wish: releasing those bound unjustly, untying the thongs
of the yoke; Setting free the oppressed, breaking every yoke; Sharing your
bread with the hungry, sheltering the oppressed and the homeless;Clothing the naked when you see them, and not turning your back on your
own. Then your light shall break forth like the dawn, and your wound shall quickly
be healed; Your vindication shall go before you, and the glory of the LORD shall
be your rear guard. Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer, you shall cry
for help, and he will say: Here I am! If you remove from your midst
oppression, false accusation and malicious speech; If you bestow yourbread on the hungry and satisfy the afflicted; Then light shall rise for you in

AMOS 5:21-24
I hate, I spurn your feasts, I take nopleasure in your solemnities; Your
cereal offerings I will not accept, nor
consider your stall-fed peace offerings.Away with your noisy songs! I will not
listen to the melodies of your harps. But
if you would offer me holocausts, thenlet justice surge like water, and
goodness like an unfailing stream.

MATTHEW 12: 8 13
Moving on from there, he went into their synagogue.
And behold, there was a man there who had a
withered hand. They questioned him, "Is it lawful to
cure on the sabbath? so that they might accusehim. He said to them, "Which one of you who
has a sheep that falls into a pit on the sabbath
will not take hold of it and lift it out? How much
more valuable a person is than a sheep. So it islawful to do good on the sabbath. Then he said
to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it
out, and it was restored as sound as the other.

absolute submission, the "nothingness of the

humble oneself, as Mary did in the Magnificat,
