Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 13. - Ashamed of Bethel; i.e. of the golden calf or bull at Bethel, set up by Jeroboam I. as a symbol of the strong God, Jehovah. This idolatry was odious to the prophetic teachers of a nobler and more spiritual form of religion. They saw that the deity and the symbol were too much confounded, and that such a religion would not save its adherents from captivity and ruin (comp. Hosea 10:15; Amos 3:14; Amos 5:5, 6).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(13) Beth-el their confidence.--The name of the sanctuary stands for the golden calf that was worshipped there as the symbol of Jehovah (1Kings 12:29; Amos 7:10). That worship had been put to shame in the captivity of the Ten Tribes. So also should it be with the Chemosh-worship of Moab.
