Isaiah 44:15
Arabic Bible ERV 2009
ما معنى هذا؟
This verse from Isaiah talks about how people can take wood from a tree, use it for practical purposes like warming and baking, but then also carve it into an idol to worship. The key message is that people misdirect their efforts, using the same material for both useful and foolish purposes.
شرح للأطفال
Imagine you have a big block of wood. You could use it to make a fire to stay warm or cook food, or you could carve it into a toy and pretend it's a magical god. But that wouldn't make sense, right? That's what this verse is talking about.
السياق التاريخي
Isaiah, a prophet in the 8th century BCE, wrote this verse to the Israelites who were being tempted to worship idols. The cultural setting was one where idol worship was common among surrounding nations, and Isaiah warns against this foolish practice.
