Barnes' Notes
<< Isaiah 44:18   Isaiah 44:20 >>


Isaiah 44:19

And none considereth in his heart - Margin, ' Setteth to.' He does not place the subject near his heart or mind; he does not think of it. A similar phrase occurs in Isaiah 46:8 : ' Bring it again to mind.' It is a phrase drawn from the act of placing an object near us, in order to examine it closely; and we express the same idea by the phrase ' looking at a thing,' or ' looking at it closely.' The sense is, they had not attentively and carefully thought on the folly of what they were doing - a sentiment which is as true of all sinners as it was of stupid idolaters.

An abomination - A name that is often given to an idol II Kings 11:5, II Kings 11:7; II Kings 23:13. The meaning is, that an idol was abominable and detestable in the sight of a holy God. It was that which he could not endure.

Shall I fall down to the stock of a tree? - Margin, ' That which comes of.' The word ּ bûl means properly "produce, increase," and here evidently a stock or trunk of wood. So it is in the Chaldee.
