Matthew Poole and continuators on Leviticus 19:4

4 Turn ye not unto Idols , nor make to your selves molten gods : I am the LORD your God.

Turn not your hearts and faces from me, whom alone you pretend to respect, unto them. He intimates, that their turning to Idols is a turning from God, and that they could not serve both God and Idols.

The word signifies such as are no Gods, or nothings, as they are called 1 Cor. 8. 4. many Idols having no being, but onely in the fancy of their Worshippers, and all of them having no vertue or power to do good or evil, Esa. 41. 23.

Nor graven Gods neither, as appears from Exod. 20. whereby we learn, that such expressions are generally to be understood Synecdochically.
