What Does “I Desire Mercy and Not Sacrifice” Mean in Matthew 9:9-13?

Welcome to Grace in Focus. Today, Bob and Shawn will be discussing Matthew 9:9-13. Specifically, what did the Lord mean when He said, “I desire mercy and not sacrifice.” The guys will discuss this passage in light of Hosea 6:6 and the significance of the sacrificial system. They will also address the application for the Old Testament saints, and the application for us today. We hope you enjoy the discussion.
