Yea, God did require sacrifice as well as mercy: Answ. But we must understand this with these limitations.
1. I will have sacrifice, but not without the spirit: Sacrifices without the spirit joined with them are nothing worth; when spiritual worship is joined with their outward sacrifices then they are accepted of, instituted worship separated from natural worship is regarded.

2. Not sacrifices to make atonement for their sins. The people thought by their sacrifices to make atonement for their lives though they were never so vile and base; but saith God, I will not have it thus, I will have it only typical, in relation to Christ; but they left out Christ in them: therefore saith God in this sense, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice.
