2 Raja-raja 17:15

Mereka menolak ketetapan-Nya dan perjanjian-Nya, yang telah diadakan dengan nenek moyang mereka, juga peraturan-peraturan-Nya yang telah diperingatkan-Nya kepada mereka; mereka mengikuti dewa kesia-siaan, sehingga mereka mengikuti bangsa-bangsa yang di sekeliling mereka, walaupun TUHAN telah memerintahkan kepada mereka: janganlah berbuat seperti mereka itu.

Alkitab Terjemahan Lama
dicelakannya hukum undang-undang-Nya dan perjanjian yang telah didirikan Tuhan dengan nenek moyang mereka itu, dan segala firman yang telah disampaikan-Nya kepada mereka itu, dan kelakuan mereka itu menurut perkara yang sia-sia, sehingga mereka itu sendiripun menjadi sia-sia belaka, dan diturutnya adat segala bangsa yang duduk keliling mereka itu, yang ada firman Tuhan akan halnya, janganlah kiranya kelakuan mereka itu seperti bangsa itu.

Contextual Overview

7 For it came to passe, that the children of Israel sinned against the Lord their God which had brought them out of the land of Egypt, from vnder the hand of Pharao king of Egypt, and feared other gods. 8 And they walked in the ceremonies of the heathen whom the Lorde cast out before the children of Israel, and in the ceremonies which the kinges of Israel had made: 9 And the children of Israel went about to hide those thinges that were not wel from the Lorde their God: And they buylt them hygh places in all their cities, both in the towres where they kept watch, and also in the strong townes: 10 And they made the images & groues in euery hye hill, & vnder euery thicke tree. 11 And there they burnt incense in all the hygh places, as did the heathen whom the Lord caryed away before them, and wrought wicked thinges to anger the Lorde withall: 12 For they serued most vile idols, wherof the Lorde had sayd vnto them: Ye shall do no such thing. 13 And the Lorde testified in Israel and in Iuda by all the prophetes and by all the sears, saying: Turne from your wicked wayes, and kepe my commaundementes and my statutes, according to all the law which I commaunded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my seruauntes the prophetes. 14 Nothwithstanding they woulde not heare, but rather hardened their neckes, lyke to the stubburnesse of their fathers, that dyd not beleue in the Lorde their God. 15 For they refused his statutes, and his appoyntment that he made with their fathers, and the witnesses wherwith he witnessed vnto them, and they folowed vanitie, and became vayne, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the Lorde had charged them that they shoulde not do lyke them. 16 But they left al the commaundemetes of the Lord their God, and made them images of metal, euen two calues, and [made] idol groues, & worshipped all the hoast of heauen, and serued Baal.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers,.... At Sinai and Horeb, see Exodus 24:8,

and his testimonies which he testified against them; calling heaven and earth to witness what he would do to them if they broke his laws, Deuteronomy 4:26, and which were so many testifications of his mind and will what they should do, or otherwise what should be done to them; Ben Gersom also interprets this of the feasts of the passover and tabernacles, which were witnesses of Israel's coming out of Egypt, and of the sanctification and redemption of the firstborn, a testimony of the slaying the firstborn in Egypt:

and they followed vanity; idols, which are vain things for help, can neither hear, see, speak, c.

and became vain as sottish and stupid as the idols they worshipped; which is the usual fruit and effect of idolatry, see Romans 1:21

and went after the heathen that were round about them: imitated them in their idolatrous practices, as the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, c. concerning

whom the Lord had charged them, that they should not do like them of this charge see Deuteronomy 6:13.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

As idols are “vanity” and “nothingness,” mere weakness and impotence, so idolators are “vain” and impotent. Their energies have been wasted, their time misspent; they have missed the real object of their existence; their whole life has been a mistake; and the result is utter powerlessness. Literally, the word rendered “vanity” seems to mean “breath” or “vapor” - a familiar image for nonentity. It occurs frequently in the prophets, and especially in Jeremiah (e. g. Jeremiah 2:5; Jeremiah 8:19; Jeremiah 14:22, etc.).
