And the word of the Lord came unto me To acquaint me with the real character of these men, and what I should say to them. These men have set up their idols in their hearts They are not only inclined to idolatry in their hearts, but they have actually set up idols and worshipped them. It seems, however, that their idolatry consisted, not in entirely deserting, but in corrupting and polluting the service of the true God, intermixing it with foreign worship and superstitions, learned from the heathen. And have set up the stumbling-block, &c. Their idols, which were both the object of their sin, and the occasion of their ruin. Should I be inquired of at all by them? Shall I give any counsel, or any answer concerning that of which they inquire of me, to such hypocrites as these?
