The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
El carpintero saca su regla y marca la madera con una línea. La moldea con sus herramientas y usa un compás para delinearla, haciéndola parecer una persona—una hermosa figura humana—para que pueda estar en la casa de alguien.
El carpintero fabrica cuidadosamente un ídolo con forma humana para colocarlo en una casa.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Isaiah was writing during a time when idol worship was common throughout the ancient Near East, including among some Israelites. People would carve statues from wood or stone to represent their gods, often making them in human form because they believed gods looked like idealized humans. This verse is part of Isaiah's larger critique of the foolishness of worshiping handmade objects instead of the living God.
