15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by human hands.
15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of human hands.
15 The gods of the godless nations are mere trinkets, made for quick sale in the markets:
15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men's hands.
15 The idols of the nations are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 135:15
Commentary on Psalm 135:15-21
(Read Psalm 135:15-21)
These verses arm believers against idolatry and all false worship, by showing what sort of gods the heathen worshipped. And the more deplorable the condition of the Gentile nations that worship idols, the more are we to be thankful that we know better. Let us pity, and pray for, and seek to benefit benighted heathens and deluded sinners. Let us endeavour to glorify his name, and recommend his truth, not only with our lips, but by holy lives, copying the example of Christ's goodness and truth.
