Commentary of Charles Spurgeon, Adam Clarke & Matthew Henry
Vs.22-23
The near way to folly is the profession of wisdom.
Professing themselves to be wise - The word φασκοντες signifies 
not merely the professing but the assumption of the philosophic character.
They changed the glory, etc. - The finest
representation of their deities was in the human figure; and on such
representative figures the sculptors spent all their skill; not having the true principles of morality, they represented them as
slaves to the most disorderly and disgraceful passions; as possessing unlimited
powers of sensual gratification.
They ascribed
a deity to the most contemptible creatures, and by them represented God.
---It was
the greatest honor God did to man that He made man in the image of God;
---but it
is the greatest dishonor man has done to God that he has made God in the image
of man.
