Thematic Bible: Those that trust in idols


Thematic Bible



"What profit is an idol when its maker has shaped it, a metal image, a teacher of lies? For its maker trusts in his own creation when he makes speechless idols! Woe to him who says to a wooden thing, Awake; to a silent stone, Arise! Can this teach? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in it.

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands. They have mouths, but do not speak; eyes, but do not see. They have ears, but do not hear; noses, but do not smell. read more.
They have hands, but do not feel; feet, but do not walk; and they do not make a sound in their throat. Those who make them become like them; so do all who trust in them.

They are turned back and utterly put to shame, who trust in carved idols, who say to metal images, "You are our gods." Verse ConceptsFaith, Nature OfTrust, Lack OfTrusting IdolsFate Of IdolatersShame Of IdolatryFutile Faith

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of human hands. They have mouths, but do not speak; they have eyes, but do not see; they have ears, but do not hear, nor is there any breath in their mouths. read more.
Those who make them become like them, so do all who trust in them!
