Amos 5:21-23
Excerpted from: Hamas' October 7 Attack

That syncretistic festival also rhymes with what God says in Amos 5. He says, I hate, I despise your feast days, and I do not savor your sacred assemblies. . .. He says, Take away from Me the noise of your songs, for I will not hear the melody of your stringed instruments (Amos 5:21-23). A few verses later, God says that even as they were making sacrifices to Him in the wilderness, they also had other gods. And then He says, Therefore I will send you into captivity . . . (Amos 5:25-27). In another chilling rhyme, 40 of the revelers were taken into captivity on their feast day.

Amos 5:22-25
Excerpted from: The Covenants, Grace, and Law (Part 23)

There is no indication that they were not keeping the holy days of God. But there was something about these people, that God did not consider it to be "His." It was now "theirs." They were keeping it in a self-centered way, according to their own way.

Well, they were offering sacrifices and offerings.
