Hosea 6:6

For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings. (ESV

The reason for such severe discipline is reiterated: God’s people had failed to understand His true desire. He longed for devotion and loyalty expressed through allegiance to the covenant demands. Sacrifices were meaningless and even offensive unless offered in the context of obedience.

(cf. 1 Sam. 15:22; Isa. 1:11–20; Amos 5:21–24; Micah 6:6–8).
