    Compare

    Who carries whom?

    Read Isaiah 46:1–7 slowly. Notice every word about carrying, bearing and burdens.

    Isaiah 46:1–2. Trouble comes to Babylon. What happens to its idols, Bel and Nebo?

    Isaiah 46:6–7. Someone pays a goldsmith for a god, carries it home and cries to it. What can it do?

    Isaiah 46:3–4. Who is doing the carrying now?

    So what is the difference?
