Yesaya 37:19
Konteks37:19 They have burned the gods of the nations, 1 for they are not really gods, but only the product of human hands manufactured from wood and stone. That is why the Assyrians could destroy them. 2
Yesaya 37:1
Konteks37:1 When King Hezekiah heard this, 3 he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and went to the Lord’s temple.
1 Korintus 8:4
Konteks8:4 With regard then to eating food sacrificed to idols, we know that “an idol in this world is nothing,” and that “there is no God but one.” 4


[37:19] 1 tn Heb “and they put their gods in the fire.”
[37:19] 2 tn Heb “so they destroyed them” (NASB similar).
[37:1] 3 tn The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.
[8:4] 4 sn “An idol in this world is nothing” and “There is no God but one.” Here and in v. 1 Paul cites certain slogans the Corinthians apparently used to justify their behavior (cf. 6:12-13; 7:1; 10:23). Paul agrees with the slogans in part, but corrects them to show how the Corinthians have misused these ideas.
