1. They majored in the minors, neglecting what matter most.
2. Their casuistry [misleading subtle reasoning] negated the law's spirit and aim.
3. They treated traditions of practice as part of God's authoritative law, thus binding consciences where God had left them free.
4. They were hypocrites at heart, angling for man's approval all the time.
(J.I. Packer in Concise Theology, p. 176)
"And then all the host of Rohan burst into song, and they sang as they slew, for the joy of the battle was on them, and the sound of their singing that was fair and terrible came even to the City."

Let the saints be joyful in glory, let them sing aloud on their beds, let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hand, to execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples; to bind the kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron. Psalm 149:5-8
