Psalms 50:15. And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
Thus you see God has spoken to his professing people - to those who were moral, decent, and observant of outward ritual. He now turns to some others - some others, perhaps, quite as outwardly religious, but their lives were immoral; their conduct was a breach of his law. At first he speaks of their neglect of the first table, which says, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart," and shows that it is not bullocks and rams which can make amends for forgetfulness of God. Now he turns to the second table and shows that no amount of sacrifice can make up for breaches of the law of God as it touches our fellow men.
