Who is even among you, And he shutteth the two-leaved doors? Yea, ye do not kindle Mine altar for nought, I have no pleasure in you, said Jehovah of Hosts, And a present I do not accept of your hand.

Malachi 1:10 Additional Translations
Geneva Study Bible

Who is there even among you {l} that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith the LORD of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.

(l) Because the Levites who kept the doors did not test whether the sacrifices that came in were according to the Law, God wishes that they would rather shut the doors, than to receive such as were not perfect.


Scofield Reference Notes

Margin Who is there

Or, I would that one among you would shut the doors [of the temple] that no more vain fire should kindle on mine altar. Cf. Isa 1:11-15.
