By describing G-d’s “punishment for Torah abandonment,” King David explains previous pleading for divine intervention. Unique verbiage of heavenly “trampling” becomes a central point of departure –as we discover the protagonist earning the Psalmist’s ire. Clearly, the subject is those masquerading with false piety; essentially two-faced fakers who excel at corruption, misrepresentation and wilful deceit that’s become their way of life. Ultimately, it is only through immersion in Torah that we can ensure full integrity and honesty in our service to G-d. (Psalm 119, verses 118-119)
