Tetapi kamu ini menajiskannya, karena kamu menyangka: "Meja Tuhan memang cemar dan makanan yang ada di situ boleh dihinakan!"
Maka kamu mengaibkan dia, tegal katamu: Meja Tuhan itu berkecelaan dan barang yang datang di atasnya itu makanan yang keji.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But ye have profaned it,.... That is, the name of the Lord, which they are said to despise, Malachi 1:6 and pollute, Malachi 1:7 and is a reason why they and their offerings were rejected: and that they profaned the name of the Lord appears by this,
in that ye say, The table of the Lord [is] polluted: the same with "contemptible", Malachi 1:7 as Kimchi observes;
Malachi 1:7- ::
and the fruit thereof, [even] his meat is contemptible; the word for fruit o sometimes is used for speech, the fruit of the lips,
Isaiah 57:19 and taken in this sense here, as it is by some, may be understood either of the word of God, which commanded such and such sacrifices to be offered up upon the altar, and was despised, so Abarbinel: or the word of the priests, who were continually saying that what was offered up on the altar was contemptible, even the food which they ate of; so Jarchi and Kimchi. "Fruit" and "meat" seem to signify one and the same thing, and design the fruit and meat of the altar; either that which belonged to the Lord, the fat and the blood, which were offered to him, and were reckoned contemptible; or that which fell to the share of the priests, which they thought mean and worthless. Cocceius interprets this of Christ the Branch of the Lord, and fruit of the earth, Isaiah 4:2 whose meat it was to do the will of him that sent him, and was despised and rejected by the Jews; and which was the reason of God's casting them off, and taking in the Gentiles.
o ניבו "et verbum ejus", Pagninus, Munster; "sermo ejus, [vel] eorum", Vatablus; so Ben Melech.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And ye have profaned - o (are habitually profaning it), in that ye say It was the daily result of their daily lives and acts. “It is probable that the priests did not use such words, but that by their very deeds, they proclaimed this aloud: as in the, ‘The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.’ For in that he is seen to be a despiser, though he say it not in words, yet, by their very deeds and by the crookedness of their lives, they all but cry out, There is no God. For they who live as though God beheld not, and do all things recklessly and unholily, by their own deeds and works deny God. So they who are not earnest to preserve to the holy altar the reverence becoming to it, by the very things which they do, say,
The table of the Lord is despised - Not the “table of showbread,” since it is so called in reference to the sacrifice offered thereon. Ezekiel had probably so called the altar, which he saw in his vision of the new temple. Ezekiel 44:16. It is what was before called “the altar;” an altar, in regard to the sacrifices offered to God; a “table,” in regard to the food of the sacrifice therefrom received. Both names, “altar” Matthew 5:23; Hebrews 13:10. and “table” 1 Corinthians 10:21. being received in the New Testament, both were received in the early Church. For each represented one side of the great eucharistic action, as it is a Sacrifice and a sacrament. But the title “altar” was the earliest.
It may be here a different profaneness of the priests. They connived at the sin of the people in sacrificing the maimed animals which they brought, and yet, since they had their food from the sacrifices, and such animals are likely to have been neglected and ill-conditioned, they may very probably have complained of the poverty of their lot, and despised the whole service. For the words used, “its produce, the eating thereof is contemptible” belong to their portion, not to what was consumed by fire. With this agrees their cry.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Malachi 1:12. Ye have profaned it — Ye have desecrated God's worship; is it any wonder that God should cast you off, and follow you with his judgments?
