set up Exodus 20:4 You shall not make to you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath... Leviticus 26:1 You shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither raise you up a standing image... Deuteronomy 17:2-7 If there be found among you, within any of your gates which the LORD your God gives you, man or woman... Deuteronomy 27:15 Cursed be the man that makes any graven or molten image, an abomination to the LORD, the work of the hands of the craftsman... Deuteronomy 31:16, 29 And the LORD said to Moses, Behold, you shall sleep with your fathers; and this people will rise up... Judges 18:30 And the children of Dan set up the graven image: and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Manasseh... God had graciously performed his promise, in putting these Danites in possession of that which fell to their lot, obliging them thereby to be faithful to him who had been so to them; they inherited the labour of the people, that they might observe his statues. Psalm 105:44, 45 And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labor of the people... But the first thing they do after they are settled is to break his laws, by setting up the graven image, attributing their success to that idol, which, if God had not been infinitely patient, would have been their ruin. Thus a prosperous idolater goes on to offend, imputing this his power unto his God. Instead of Manasseh, some would read Moses; as it is found in some MSS., in the Vulgate and in the concessions of the most intelligent Jews. But Bp. Patrick takes this to be an idle conceit of the Rabbins, and supposes this Jonathan to be of some other family of the Levites. Yet Kimchi acknowledges, that the Jews deeply concerned for the honour of their lawgiver, to whom they thought it would be a great dishonour to have a grandson who was an idolater, suspended the letter, noon, over the word Moses; which, by means of the points, they have changed into Manasseh. until Judges 13:1 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD... 1 Samuel 4:2, 3, 10, 11 And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel: and when they joined battle, Israel was smitten before the Philistines... Psalm 78:60-62 So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he placed among men... the land. Houbigant contends that instead of the land we should read the ark.  |
