“For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.”
The reference to transgressions of Israel and knowing their mighty sins indicates the comprehensive knowledge of Israel's crimes. The description of turning aside the poor in the gate indicates the perversion of justice itself.
