Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 30:22

22. Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth ; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.

To shew your contempt of it, and to make it unfit for your own, or any others use,

The Leaves or Plates wherewith their wooden Images were frequently covered: of which see Exod. 38. 17, 19. Numb. 16. 38, 39.

Or, the coat or covering. Heb. the Ephod, as this very Word is rendred, Exod. 28. 8. and 39. 5. which was a costly and glorious Robe. The Idolaters spared no Cost in the making and adorning of their Idols: And, among others, the Image of Iupiter in Sicily, had a Coat put upon it made all of massy Gold.

Thou shalt so deeply abhor Idolatry, that thou shalt cast away, with indignation, all the Monuments and Instruments thereof.

Marginal references: Ch. 2. 20. & 31. 7.; Heb. the graven images of thy silver.; Heb. scatter.
