And the idols he shall utterly abolish.
And the idols - Hebrew, haa'ªliyliym (H457); literally, vain things, nothings (1 Corinthians 8:4). Fulfilled to the letter. Before the Babylonian captivity the Jews were most prone to idolatry; in no instance ever since. For the future fulfillment, see Zechariah 13:2; Revelation 13:15; Revelation 19:20. Idolatry shall again be set up, and then shall be utterly abolished.
