Jeremiah 7:18 ... The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough to make cakes for the Queen of Heaven; and pour out drink offerings to the gods ...
Jeremiah 10 ... they cut a tree out of the forest, and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel. They adorn it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so it will not totter.
