Shalom. Without the respect for fundamental moral values - justice, helping the oppressed, the widow, and the orphan - everything else is futile and insignificant (prayers, Sabbath, sacrifices, etc.). Begin with the essentials and then serve. Yes, sacrifices and adherence to the law only make sense if moral values are respected; otherwise, there is no purpose (justice, the oppressed, the widow, and the orphan). Isaiah 1 13 Cease to bring empty offerings! I abhor incense, the beginnings of the month, Sabbaths, and convocations. I cannot bear to see injustice associated with celebrations. 14 I detest your new moons and your appointed feasts; they have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them. 15 When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your hands are full of blood. 16 Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean; remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes; cease to do evil, 17 learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow's cause. 18 Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. The Messiah Yeshua imparts the teaching of light to you; there is nothing higher. As long as many Jews reject their Messiah, we will achieve nothing. Your Messiah only teaches the Torah, the law of Moses; to reject him is senseless. Matthew 5 43 You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Isaiah 9 5 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Micah 5 1 Now muster your troops, O daughter of troops; siege is laid against us; with a rod they strike the judge of Israel on the cheek. 2 But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are too little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose coming forth is from of old, from ancient days. 3 Therefore he shall give them up until the time when she who is in labor has given birth; then the rest of his brothers shall return to the people of Israel. 4 And he shall stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God. And they shall dwell secure, for now he shall be great to the ends of the earth (Yeshua born in Bethlehem)."
