“As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.”
The statement that though the prophets called them, they kept sacrificing to Baals and burning incense to idols indicates that the prophetic attempts to call Israel back to covenant have been consistently rejected in favor of idolatry. The persistence of false worship despite prophetic correction suggests the depth of Israel's resistance to returning to God. This verse establishes that the problem is not mere ignorance but willful rejection of prophetic correction.
