2 - MAKING IMAGES FOR THE PURPOSE OF WORSHIP

Exodus 20:4 -- “You shall not make for yourself a 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”

“It is the principal object of the Law, and the axis round which it turns, to blot out these opinions from man’s heart and make the existence of idolatry impossible*.”

* Moreh Nebuchim III, 29
