Exod. 20:3-5 |
"You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall
not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in
heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under
the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them..." |
Exod. 20:23 |

silver or gods of gold you shall not make for yourselves." |
Exod. 22:20 |
"He who sacrifices to any god, except to the Lord
only, he shall be utterly destroyed." |

"And in all that I have said to you, be circumspect
and make no mention of the name of other gods, nor let it be heard from your
mouth." |
Lev. 19:4 |
"Do not turn to idols, nor make for yourselves
*molded (cast metal) gods: I am the Lord your God." |
Lev. 24:16 |
"And whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord shall
surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him, the
stranger as well as him who is born in the land. When he blasphemes the name of
the Lord, he shall be put to death." |
Deut. 4:15-19 |
"Take careful heed to yourselves, for you saw no form
when the Lord spoke to you at Horeb out of the midst of the fire, lest you act
corruptly and make for yourselves a carved image in the form of any figure: the
likeness of male or female, the likeness of any beast that is on the earth or
the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the air, the likeness of anything
that creeps on the ground or the likeness of any fish that is in the water
beneath the earth. And take heed, lest you lift your eyes to heaven, and when
you see the sun, the moon, and the stars, all the host of heaven, you feel
driven to worship them and serve them, which the Lord your God has *given
(divided) to all the peoples under the whole heaven as a heritage." |
1 Cor. 8:5-6 |
"For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), yet for us there is only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Chrit, through whom are all things, and through whom we live." |
