Thought
The prophets and priests sinned against the Lord, shedding the blood of the righteous in their streets, so the people became defiled with blood. They themselves cried out that they were unclean, and the nations refused to give them refuge. But then the Lord says He scattered them and will not care for them because they did not honor priest or favor the elders. The priests were those who killed the righteous! But they were not always so. The priests did not turn away from the Lord without some incentive.
