Isaiah 58:6

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Isaiah 58:6. Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

Yes, this is true fasting before God; - not to demand your pound of flesh, and declare that you will have it; not to grind down the poor man to the last farthing; but "to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free."
