📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus is responding to the Pharisees who criticized Him for eating with tax collectors and sinners, pointing out their focus on outward religious rituals over genuine compassion. He quotes from the prophet Hosea (6:6) to emphasize that God desires mercy and a heart of repentance more than strict sacrifices, reflecting the cultural tension in first-century Judaism between legalistic traditions and the true spirit of the law. This exchange highlights Jesus' mission to challenge religious hypocrisy and reach out to the marginalized.
