Because people were making "empty sacrifices" with no repentance and no intention of turning from sin. Such hypocrisy remains a common problem, witness the Saturday night drunkard who goes to church every Sunday proclaiming that he is saved, and then goes right back to the same place next weekend for another round of drunken debauchery.
