What others discovered
The princes of Judah are like those who remove a landmark." Nobody notices a boundary stone shifted a few inches in the dark. The neighbor loses a little, the thief gains a little, and by morning everything looks respectable. God saw it. Where have you quietly nudged a line that was never yours to move?
They will go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Yahweh; but they won't find him. He has withdrawn himself from them." They brought animals, not repentance. It is possible to arrive with full hands and an unturned heart. Ask yourself what you are offering God instead of yourself, and whether you would notice if he stepped back.
