Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary3. stood before the image-in an attitude of devotion. Whatever the king approved of, they all approve of. There is no stability of principle in the ungodly. Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary3:1-7 In the height of the image, about thirty yards, probably is included a pedestal, and most likely it was only covered with plates of gold, not a solid mass of that precious metal. Pride and bigotry cause men to require their subjects to follow their religion, whether right or wrong, and when worldly interest allures, and punishment overawes, few refuse. This is easy to the careless, the sensual, and the infidel, who are the greatest number; and most will go their ways. There is nothing so bad which the careless world will not be drawn to by a concert of music, or driven to by a fiery furnace. By such methods, false worship has been set up and maintained. | |
