Listen to Isaías 44:16

Isaías 44:16 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 44:16

He burneth part thereof in the fire
To warm himself with, as before: with part thereof he eateth flesh;
that is, with part of it he dresses flesh, and makes it fit to eat; unless the meaning is, with part of it he makes tables and trenchers to eat meat off of; but the former sense seems most likely, and agrees with what follows: he roasteth roast, and is satisfied;
he roasts his meat with it, and eats it when roasted, and is highly pleased and delighted with it, and he eats of it to his satisfaction: yea, he warmeth him, and saith, Aha;
an expression of joy and delight, being before a good fire in winter time: I am warm, I have seen the fire;
have felt it, and enjoyed the comfort of it, which has given a sensible pleasure.

Isaías 44:16 In-Context

14 Derriba los cedros,y escoge un ciprés o un roble,y lo deja crecer entre los árboles del bosque;o planta un pino, que la lluvia hace crecer.
15 Al hombre le sirve de combustible,y toma una parte para calentarse;enciende un fuego y hornea pan.Pero también labra un dios y lo adora;hace un ídolo y se postra ante él.
16 La mitad de la madera la quema en el fuego,sobre esa mitad prepara su comida;asa la carne y se sacia.También se calienta y dice:«¡Ah! Ya voy entrando en calor,mientras contemplo las llamas».
17 Con el resto hace un dios, su ídolo;se postra ante él y lo adora.Y suplicante le dice:«Sálvame, pues tú eres mi dios».
18 No saben nada, no entienden nada;sus ojos están velados, y no ven;su mente está cerrada, y no entienden.
