Malachi 2: 1-9

Shaun speaks from Malachi’s message to Israel by way of its priests. The priests had abandoned their responsibility to be God’s messengers; God, in turn, shows a complete lack of apathy both in this message and, more generally, in His love for His people. We (including, but not limited to those in particular pastoral positions), in response to this extravagant (and unearned) love, ought to heed His instructions.
