Isaiah 58:9 says, "If you remove the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness, and if you give yourself to the hungry, and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then your light will rise in darkness, and your gloom will become like midday;" or, in short, a finger pointed in scorn is not an act of which God approves.
