Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
Isaiah spends a lot of time showing the difference between the one true living God and the idols that are the work of men's hands. Bel and Nebo need their idols to be carried on the backs of beasts. These idols of stone and wood get taken into foreign lands, the plunder of the besieging army. In contrast, the living God is the one who carries his people. From the womb to the gray hair of the aged, God carries and cares for his people.
The foolish people hire a goldsmith to fashion an image they can then bow down to, pray to, and offer worship to. They pick it up at the shop and carry it on their shoulders to their homes.
You should put it over by the fireplace. That could look nice," offers the husband.
"I don't know. I liked it by the window. The morning light seems to capture its beauty."
"Well, you need to put it somewhere that the kids won't crash into it when they run through here. That was an expensive idol, and I don't want it all dinged up as soon as we get it home."
The wife muses a little bit. "Okay, move it one more time for me."
He rolls his eyes.
