耶和华的命令我已经执行了。——撒上15:13

耶和华命令扫罗灭绝亚玛力人, 这个民族曾无故攻击以色列人。 按照上帝的吩咐, 扫罗甚至要杀尽他们的牲畜。 上帝的命令清晰明确, 但扫罗和人民却没有切实听从。 他们没有杀死亚甲王, 又留下了“上好的牛羊、 肥壮的牲畜、 公绵羊和一切美物”。 扫罗明明违背了上帝的命令, 却辩称: “人民怜恤上好的牛羊, 要献给耶和华你的上帝做祭牲。”(撒上15:1-15) 就是在这个情形下, 撒母耳对扫罗说: “耶和华喜悦全烧祭和祭牲, 哪里像喜悦人听从耶和华的话呢? 服从胜于献祭, 听命胜于公羊的脂肪。”(撒上15:22) 既然耶和华早已判定那些牲畜是该灭之物, 就自然不会悦纳这样的祭物。 《守》07/6/15刊2篇9,10段

在很多宗教里,他们的神必须定期的贿赂才能得到赐福,然而耶和华确实不一样的神,他要求人听从他的话,有没有牺牲反倒是次要的。例如亚伯拉罕就可以听从上帝的吩咐把自己的儿子以撒献上。上帝不需要他儿子的生命作为礼物,只是看他有没有服从的心。全宇宙都是属于上帝耶和华的,他根本不需要什么祭牲,而以色列人以为完成了这个义务就可以随心所欲了。所以耶和华说他根本就不悦纳以色列人所献的礼物。

I have carried out the word of Jehovah.—1 Sam. 15:13.

Jehovah commanded Saul to annihilate the nation of Amalek, which had earlier attacked Israel without provocation. Saul was not even to spare their domestic animals. Yet, contrary to the clear instructions they had received, Saul and his people kept alive King Agag and “the best of the flock and the herd.” King Saul justified his disobedient course by saying: “The people had compassion upon the best of the flock and of the herd, for the purpose of sacrificing to Jehovah your God.” (1 Sam. 15:1-15) At that, Samuel told Saul: “Does Jehovah have as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of Jehovah? Look! To obey is better than a sacrifice, to pay attention than the fat of rams.” (1 Sam. 15:22) Since Jehovah had determined that those animals were to be destroyed, they were not acceptable for offering as sacrifices. w07 6/15 2:9, 10
