“Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.”
Isaiah 44:15 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 44:15
The same wood serves multiple purposes: fuel for warming, fire for baking bread, and material for a god to worship. The casual interchangeability - some for fire, some for worship - exposes the absurdity: what's the difference between the piece that warms and the piece that becomes divine? The Hebrew 'af' (also/even) emphasizes the ridiculous equivalence.
