Answer 177

Israel has sinned by having a society that is corrupt and unjust. God spurns sacrifices. There will be a great destruction as punishment. Assyria is the instrument of that punishment. God will spare a remnant (Jerusalem). There will be reconciliation, salvation, in-gathering of exiles, re-establishment of Davidic kingship, and an era of universal peace. Recurrent metaphor - God will bring low the mighty/haughty (cut down tall trees, knock down high mountains), and raise up the lowly (humble/poor).

1 Isaiah 1:11-18 Of what use are your many sacrifices to Me? says the Lord. I am sated with the burnt-offerings of rams and the fat of fattened cattle; and the blood of bulls and sheep and hegoats I do not want. When you come to appear before Me, who requested this of you, to trample My courts? You shall no longer bring vain meal-offerings, it is smoke of abomination to Me; New Moons and Sabbaths, calling convocations, I cannot [bear] iniquity with assembly. Your New Moons and your appointed seasons My soul hates, they are a burden to Me; I am weary of bearing [them]. And when you spread out your hands, I will hide My eyes from you, even when you pray at length, I do not hear; your hands are full of blood. Wash, cleanse yourselves, remove the evil of your deeds from before My eyes, cease to do evil. Learn to do good, seek justice, strengthen the robbed, perform justice for the orphan, plead the case of the widow. Come now, let us debate, says the Lord. If your sins prove to be like crimson, they will become white as snow; if they prove to be as red as crimson dye, they shall become as wool. You can't come and do sacrifices when you are corrupt and immoral. God doesn't care about your sacrifices. Stop doing bad stuff. Learn to do good. If you do, all sin can be cleansed away.
