When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?

When ye come to appear before me - in the temple, where the Shechinah, resting on the ark, was the symbol of God's presence (; ).

Who hath required this at your hand - as if you were doing God a service by such hypocritical offerings (). God did require it (), but not in this split (Micah 6:6).

To tread my courts - areas, in which the worshippers were. None but priests entered the temple itself.
