22 - BENEFITING FROM ORNAMENTS WHICH HAVE ADORNED AN IDOL


Deuteronomy 7:25 -- “You shall burn the carved images of their gods with fire; you shall not covet the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it for yourselves, lest you be snared by it; for it is an abomination to the LORD your God.”

“Objects in the making of which human hands have had no part, such as mountains, cattle, and trees, though they are worshipped, may nevertheless be used. The coverings of any such objects, however, may not be used… as it is said, you shall not covet the silver or gold that is on them.”*

* Mishneh Torah, Mada, Hilchoth Abodath Kochabim VIII, 7
