Yet — They cover all their wickedness with a profession of religion. Delight — There are many men who take some pleasure in knowing God's will and word, and yet do not conform their lives to it. As — As if they were a righteous people. Forsook — As if they were not guilty of any apostacy from God, or disobedience to God's precepts. Ask — As if they resolved to observe them. In approaching — In coming to my temple to hear my word, and to offer sacrifices.
