Haukes. I say, what difference is there between an idol and an image?
Bonner. If it be a false god, and an image made of him, that is an idol: but if an image be made of God himself, it is no idol but an image, because he is a true God.
Hawks. Lay your image of a true God and of your false god together, and you shall see no difference. Have not your images feet, and go not; eyes and see not; ears and hear not; hands and feel not; mouths and speak not? and even so have your idols.
