Caput V. The second commandment.
Caput V. The second commaundement.
Thou shalt make the no image / or any similitude / of things in heaven above / in earth beneath / or in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not worship / nor honour them: for I am the lord / thy God / a Jealous God / punishing the iniquity of the fathers / in the children / that hate me in the third and fourth (generation.)
THow shalt make the no ymayge / or ony similitude / of thynges in heauē a boue / in earthe benethe / or in the water vnder the erthe. Thow shalt not worshippe / nor honor them: for I am the lord / thy God / a Ielous God / punyshing the iniquitye of the fathers / in the chyldre / that hate me in the thyrd and fourthe (generation.)
IN the first commandment we learned / that God is the only / and sole God. and that we should not think / nor feign any other besides him. farther that commandment / expresseth what this our one God is / and how affectioned / or minded towards us. full of mercy / and ready always to succour / and aid / both soul / and body / in all affliction. showeth us farther / how we should honour / and reverence this / our almighty and merciful God. so that the end / and hole sum of the first commandment is / that only God would be known / of his people to be God / and honoured as god. so doth god first instruct the mind / and soul of man / before he require any outward ⟨p.
