“Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.”
Her prophets are reckless, faithless men; her priests profane the holy thing; they do violence to the law—the indictment extends to spiritual leaders: prophets lack integrity, priests desecrate holiness, and all pervert God's law. The corruption of spiritual leadership represents a comprehensive failure of the covenant community. False prophecy and polluted priesthood prevent authentic encounter with God.
