Isaiah 1:16 meaning and explanation
Wash and cleanse yourselves. Remove your evil deeds from My sight. Stop doing evil!
Isaiah 1:16, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
God speaks through Isaiah to Judah, whose worship has become empty because their hands are covered with blood (verses 11 to 15). The Hebrew verbs for wash and cleanse are plural, addressed to the whole nation, and removing evil from God's sight means more than ritual washing; it means stopping the wrongdoing itself.
