Introduction
The priests reproved for their unfaithfulness in their office, for which they are threatened to be deprived of their share of the sacrifice, (the shoulder), and rewarded only with ignominy and ordure, Malachi 2:1-3 . The degeneracy of the order is then complained of, and they are again threatened, Malachi 2:4-9 . The rest of the chapter reproves the people for marrying strange and idolatrous women; and multiplying divorces, with all their consequent distress, in order to make way for such illicit alliances, Malachi 2:10-17 . See Nehemiah 10:30 ; Nehemiah 13:13 , etc.
