Deuteronomio 4:17 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 4:17

The likeness of any beast that is on the earth
As there are scarce any but the likeness of them has been made and worshipped, or the creatures themselves, as the ox by the Egyptians, the sheep by the Thebans, the goat by the Mendesians, and others by different people:

the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air;
as the hawk, and the bird called Ibis, and another by the name of Cneph by the Egyptians, and the eagle by others.

Deuteronomio 4:17 In-Context

15 Or dunque, siccome non vedeste alcuna figura il giorno che l’Eterno vi parlò in Horeb in mezzo al fuoco, vegliate diligentemente sulle anime vostre,
16 affinché non vi corrompiate e vi facciate qualche immagine scolpita, la rappresentazione di qualche idolo, la figura d’un uomo o d’una donna,
17 la figura di un animale tra quelli che son sulla terra, la figura d’un uccello che vola nei cieli,
18 la figura d’una bestia che striscia sul suolo, la figura d’un pesce che vive nelle acque sotto la terra;
19 ed anche affinché, alzando gli occhi al cielo e vedendo il sole, la luna, le stelle, tutto l’esercito celeste, tu non sia tratto a prostrarti davanti a quelle cose e ad offrir loro un culto. Quelle cose sono il retaggio che l’Eterno, l’Iddio tuo, ha assegnato a tutti i popoli che sono sotto tutti i cieli;
The Riveduta Bible is in the public domain.
