Mal 1:8 | MHM | STEP | v. 8 : And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee? (Malachi 1:8). God asks if they would dare give such bad gifts to their human rulers. If their governor would not accept such poor offerings, why do they think God will? God deserves the best, not leftovers.
