Deuteronomy 4:28

ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, etc.] The acme of their punishment. They have chosen to serve idols; idols must they serve in a land where the worship of Jehovah is impossible. This scorn of senseless idols, also in Deuteronomy 27:15; Deuteronomy 28:36; Deuteronomy 28:64; Deuteronomy 29:17; Deuteronomy 31:29, is an essential temper of monotheism, appearing also in Hosea 8:6; Hosea 13:2; Isaiah 2:8; Isaiah 2:20, etc.; Jeremiah 2:8; Jeremiah 10:1-10, and most frequently in Isaiah 40:19 f., Isaiah 41:7; Isaiah 44:9-20; Isaiah 46:6 f.
