Tidak ada yang mempertimbangkannya, tidak ada cukup pengetahuan atau pengertian untuk mengatakan: "Setengahnya sudah kubakar dalam api dan di atas baranya juga sudah kubakar roti, sudah kupanggang daging, lalu kumakan. Masakan sisanya akan kubuat menjadi dewa kekejian? Masakan aku akan menyembah kepada kayu kering?"
Maka dari pada mereka itu seorangpun tiada yang menaruh hatinya akan dia atau yang berpengetahuan atau berakal, sehingga katanya: Separuhnya sudah kubakar habis dengan api, dan pada baranya sudah kubakar roti dan kupanggang daging, lalu kumakan; masakan dari pada lebihnya kuperbuat barang yang kebencian serta aku menyembah sujud kepada sepuntung kayu!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And none considereth in his heart,.... Or, "and he does not return it to his heart" k; he does not come to himself again, or return to his right mind, but lives and dies under the infatuation; never once revolving it in his mind, pondering within himself what he has done, or is doing, whether right or wrong:
neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say; within himself, and reason the matter in his own mind, and thus express himself:
I have burnt part of it in the fire; to warm myself with:
yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; both heated the oven, and baked bread with it; and also upon the live coals have laid kneaded dough, and baked a cake on them:
and I have roasted flesh, and eaten it; made a fire with another part of it, and roasted meat at it, and ate it with great pleasure and satisfaction:
and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? an idol, which is an abominable thing to God, and to all men of sense and goodness:
shall I fall down to the stock of a tree? or "the bud of a tree?" l or that which is made out of a tree of my own planting, cutting down, and hewing, part of which has been used to the above purposes; and the remaining lifeless log, shall I worship it as a god? and yet, though such reasoning might be justly expected from a man that is a reasonable creature, sottish are idolaters, that they seem to be quite deprived of their rational powers, or at least these are disused by them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And none considereth in his heart - Margin, ‘Setteth to.’ He does not place the subject near his heart or mind; he does not think of it. A similar phrase occurs in Isaiah 46:8 : ‘Bring it again to mind.’ It is a phrase drawn from the act of placing an object near us, in order to examine it closely; and we express the same idea by the phrase ‘looking at a thing,’ or ‘looking at it closely.’ The sense is, they had not attentively and carefully thought on the folly of what they were doing - a sentiment which is as true of all sinners as it was of stupid idolaters.
An abomination - A name that is often given to an idol 2 Kings 11:5, 2Ki 11:7; 2 Kings 23:13. The meaning is, that an idol was abominable and detestable in the sight of a holy God. It was that which he could not endure.
Shall I fall down to the stock of a tree? - Margin, ‘That which comes of.’ The word בוּל bûl means properly “produce, increase,” and here evidently a stock or trunk of wood. So it is in the Chaldee.
