The idols of the nations are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands.
And they have thrown the gods of these nations into the fire and burned them. But of course the Assyrians could destroy them! They were not gods at all—only idols of wood and stone shaped by human hands.
And since this is true, we shouldn’t think of God as an idol designed by craftsmen from gold or silver or stone.
There, in a foreign land, you will worship idols made from wood and stone—gods that neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell.
