The LXX. has nothing to represent ‘by which they sinned.’<\/p>\n vanities<\/em> ] This word is often employed in the Old Testament of false gods, and the worship paid to them. The idea is that such a deity is nothing, and such prayers can have no result.<\/p>\n Their vanities – <\/B>The calves. The Hebrews call an idol by terms signifying emptiness, vapor, or nothingness. (Compare marginal references.)<\/P> <\/p>\n Verse 13<\/span>. For all the sins of Baasha<\/B><\/I>] We see why it was that God permitted such judgments to fall on this family. Baasha was a grievous offender, and so also was his son Elah; and they caused the people to sin; and they provoked God to anger by their idolatries.<\/P> <\/p>\n i.e. Idols, oft called vanities<\/I>, as Deu 32:21<\/span>; 1Sa 12:21<\/span>; Jer 14:22<\/span>, because they are but imaginary deities, and mere nothings<\/I>, 1Co 8:4<\/span>, having nothing at all of a God in them, and nothing of power to do either good or hurt. <\/P> <\/p>\n For all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son<\/strong>,…. By which it appears that the son trod in the steps of his father, and was therefore cut off:<\/p>\n by which they sinned, and by which they made Israel to sin, in provoking the Lord God of Israel to anger with their vanities<\/strong>; their idols, which had nothing in them, and cannot be of any service to their worshippers; and to serve such, and neglect the worship of the true God, and draw others into the same iniquity, must be very provoking to the most High.<\/p>\n (13) Vanities<\/strong>that is, idols<\/em> (as in Deu. 32:21<\/span>; 1Sa. 12:21<\/span>; Psa. 31:6<\/span>; Isa. 41:29<\/span>; Jer. viii 19; &c.): not only the idols of Dan and Bethel, but the worse abominations which grew up under cover of these. In the Old Testament generally the contempt for idolatry and false worship as a gross folly, wasting faith on unrealities, is at least as strong as the condemnation of them, as outraging Gods law, and connected with sensual or bloody rites. (See, for example, the utter scorn of Isa. 44:9-20<\/span>; Psa. 115:4-8<\/span>.)<\/p>\n 1Ki 16:13 For all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, by which they sinned, and by which they made Israel to sin, in provoking the LORD God of Israel to anger with their vanities.<\/p>\n Ver. 13.
