Isaiah 46:8

show yourselves men—Renounce the childishness of idolatry as shown in what precedes (I Corinthians 14:20; I Corinthians 16:13; Ephesians 4:14). In order to be manly we must be godly; for man was made "in the image of God," and only rises to his true dignity when joined to God; virtue is derived from the Latin vir, "a man."

bring . . . to mind—rather, "lay it to heart."

transgressors—addressed to the idolaters among the Jews.
