Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
¿Es este el ayuno que yo he escogido? ¿Un día para que la persona se aflija a sí misma? ¿Acaso es solo inclinar la cabeza como una caña doblada y tender cilicio y ceniza debajo de ti? ¿Llamarás a esto ayuno, y día agradable al SEÑOR?
Dios cuestiona si el ayuno verdadero consiste solo en rituales externos de aflicción y humillación.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This verse comes from Isaiah's prophecy during a time when the Israelites were practicing religious rituals but ignoring justice and mercy in their daily lives. They were fasting and performing ceremonial acts while oppressing the poor and vulnerable. Isaiah was calling out their hollow religious performance that lacked genuine heart change.
