Jeremías 10:8 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 10:8

But they are altogether brutish and foolish
In comparison of the Lord, there is no knowledge and wisdom in them, this is a certain fact; they are verily brutish and foolish; or they are one and all so, there is not a wise man among them: or, "in one thing they are brutish" F18; namely, in their idolatry; however wise they may be in other respects, in this they are foolish: or, to give no more instances of their brutishness F19 and folly, this one is sufficient, even what follows, the stock is a doctrine of vanities;
or what they teach persons, as to worship the trunk of a tree, or any idol of metal, or of wood, is a most vain and foolish thing, and argues gross stupidity and folly, and proves them to be brutish, and without understanding.


FOOTNOTES:

F18 (wreby txabw) "in hoc uno Munster", Tigurine version; "et certe in una quadem re obbrutescunt", Piscator. So Jarchi and Abarbinel.
F19 The Talmudists seem to take the word (reb) to have the signification of burning; for the sense of these words being asked, it is replied, there is one thing that burns the wicked in hell; what is it? idolatry; as it is here written, "a doctrine of vanities is the stock."

Jeremías 10:8 In-Context

6 ¡S
, no hay nadie como tú!
Pues eres grande y tu nombre está lleno de poder.
7 ¿Quién no te temería, oh Rey de las naciones?
¡Ese título te pertenece solo a ti!
Entre todos los sabios de la tierra
y en todos los reinos del mundo
no hay nadie como tú.
8 Los que rinden culto a ídolos son estúpidos y necios.
¡Las cosas a las que rinden culto están hechas de madera!
9 Traen láminas de plata desde Tarsis
y oro desde Ufaz,
y les entregan esos materiales a hábiles artesanos
que hacen sus ídolos.
Luego visten estos dioses con ropas de púrpura y azul real
hechas por sastres expertos.
10 Sin embargo, el Señor
es el único Dios verdadero.
¡Él es el Dios viviente y el Rey eterno!
Toda la tierra tiembla ante su enojo;
las naciones no pueden hacerle frente a su ira.
