The criticism of idolatry is now more forceful because it is directed against human creations. We can divide the passage as follows: 1. Introduction (10): more miserable than those who worship nature are those who place their hope in lifeless idols. 2. Development (13:11-14:6): a traditional theme in biblical literature is revisited—the satire against the worship of images (Is 40:19ff; 44:9-20; 46:1-7; Jer 10:2-15; CJr; Ps 115:4-8; 135:15-18). In 13:10-19, different types of image worship are listed, and in 14:7-11, the case of the sailor’s worship is described, recalling the episode of Noah’s ark (Gn 6:1-5). 3. Conclusion (14:7-11): it is added that idols will be brought to judgment because they lead men to evil. This human-made idolatry criticism remains relevant today. Cases can be found in both religious and secular contexts. Today’s believers must remember that the most true image of God is found in the most needy brothers and sisters around them.
