"Perhaps you'd do well to look up the Scripture about pure religion undefiled etc. in the Old Testament."
Old Testament? Are you sure you aren't talking about James 1:27?

MAYBE YOUR PARTIALLY RIGHT.
I was thinking about the similar one in, I think, Isaiah. Checking . . .

HERE IT IS:
Isaiah 58
4 Your fasting ends in quarreling and strife,
and in striking each other with wicked fists.
You cannot fast as you do today
and expect your voice to be heard on high.
5 Is this the kind of fast I have chosen,
only a day for a man to humble himself?
Is it only for bowing one's head like a reed
and for lying on sackcloth and ashes?
Is that what you call a fast,
a day acceptable to the LORD ?
6 "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice
and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free
and break every yoke?
