Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image,.... What remains of the tree, that is not consumed by making a fire to warm with, by heating the oven to bake bread with, and by using it in the kitchen to roast meat with, this is made an image of, and being graved and carved, is called a god, and worshipped; though it is of the same matter, and of the same nature, with that which was used for warming, baking, and roasting:

he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, deliver me, for thou art my god; he bows unto it, falls down on his knees, and spreads out his hands, and lifts them up, and uses all the gestures of adoration; yea, makes a formal address in prayer and supplication, and particularly requests that he would deliver him from present danger and distresses, of whatsoever kind he was attended with; declaring at the same time he was his god, in whom he trusted, and from whom he expected relief and help. Monstrous stupidity!

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Isaiah 44:17. He falleth down unto it — There were four forms of adoration used among the Hebrews:

1. השתחוה HISHTACHAVAH, The prostration of the whole body.

2. קדד KADAD, The bowing of the head.

3. כרע CARA, The bending of the upper part of the body down to the knees.

4. ברך BARACH, Bowing the knee, or kneeling. See on Isaiah 49:23.
