Esodo 34:17 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 34:17

Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
] Made of a melted liquid, whether gold, or silver, or brass, poured into a mould; and though graven images are not mentioned, they are included, a part being put for the whole, as appears not only from the injunction to break images in general, whether graven or molten, ( Exodus 34:13 ) but from the second command, which expressly forbids the making and worshipping of them; but "molten" ones are particularly mentioned, because it is probable they were chiefly such the Canaanites worshipped, and especially, because the calf the Israelites had lately made and worshipped was a molten one.

Esodo 34:17 In-Context

15 Guardati dunque che tu non faccia lega con gli abitanti di quel paese; che talora, quando essi fornicheranno dietro a’ lor dii, e sacrificheranno loro, non ti chiamino, e tu non mangi de’ lor sacrificii.
16 E non prenda delle lor figliuole per li tuoi figliuoli; e ch’esse, fornicando dietro a’ lor dii, non facciano parimente fornicare i tuoi figliuoli dietro agl’iddii loro.
17 Non farti alcun dio di getto.
18 Osserva la festa solenne degli Azzimi; mangia azzimi sette giorni, come io ti ho comandato, nel tempo ordinato del mese di Abib; conciossiachè nel mese di Abib tu sii uscito di Egitto.
19 Tutto quello che apre la matrice è mio; e di tutto il tuo bestiame sarà fatta offerta per ricordanza, cioè: dei primi parti del tuo minuto e del tuo grosso bestiame.
