Contextual Overview

¹⁵ As for the idols of the Heathen they are but siluer and golde: the worke of mens handes. ¹⁶ They haue a mouth and speake not: they haue eyes but they see not. ¹⁷ They haue eares and they heare not: yea there is no breath in their mouth. ¹⁸ They that make them are lyke vnto them: [and] euery one that putteth his trust in them. ¹⁹ Blesse God ye the house of Israel: blesse God ye the house of Aaron. ²⁰ Blesse God ye the house of Leui: ye that feare God, blesse God. ²¹ Blessed be God out of Sion: who dwelleth at Hierusalem. Prayse ye the Lorde.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

They have ears, but they hear not,....

:-;

neither is there [any] breath in their mouths; they are lifeless statues, they have not so much as what the brute creatures have, breath; our Jehovah, as the living God, is rightly opposed to them, who gives life, and breath, and all things, unto man; and yet what amazing stupidity is it, that any of them should worship such as gods, who have not what they themselves have.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The idols of the heathen are silver and gold ... - To show more fully the propriety of praising God, and him alone as God, the psalmist instituted a comparison between him and idols, showing that the gods worshipped by the pagan lacked every ground of claim to divine worship and homage. They were, after all that could be done to fashion, to decorate, and to adorn them, nothing but silver and gold, and could have no better claim to worship than silver and gold as such. They had, indeed, mouths, eyes, ears, but they could neither speak, see, hear, nor breathe. The passage here is substantially the same as in Psalms 115:4-8; and the one was evidently copied from the other, though in the latter the description is in some respects amplified; but which was the original it is impossible to determine. See the notes at that passage.
