Today’s collection of verses are an interesting combination. In Psalm 51, after the lament section, David declares that his sacrifice is a broken Spirit, which he wrote after the priesthood of Aaron was established from the Exodus passage. “You do not delight in sacrifice” also seems like a preview for what Jesus was bringing, And of course, the passage from Matthew is exactly that: instead of the brokenness of animals, we should be humble enough to serve others, offering wholeness.
