“For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin.”
For in that day each of you will cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your hands have made for you as a sin, establishing that the return and repentance will include the destruction of idols and the purification of worship. The casting away of silver and gold idols represents the abandonment of false objects of devotion and the reclamation of resources devoted to idolatry. The acknowledgment that the idols are a sin represents the recognition of their spiritual significance as symbols of rebellion against God. The oracle establishes that true repentance includes the physical destruction of idols and the spiritual renunciation of false gods.
