Abstract
- In studying the preaching of prophet writers of the Old Testament, we encounter a topic addressed by several of them: religious hypocrisy. The prophet is aware that it is not possible to participate in worship in the absence of a true interior conversion. It is incompatible to present an offering to God while failing to perform works of charity toward others; to raise a prayer to the Most High and practice idolatry; to implore divine mercy but not to forgive when an injury is received. In this article, some texts of the prophets who addressed this issue will be analyzed and an application made to the reality of today. The study is presented in chronological order to favor a better understanding of the sequence of historical events. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
