14 The Lord told me to teach you all the laws that you are to obey in the land that you are about to invade and occupy.
15 “When the Lord spoke to you from the fire on Mount Sinai, you did not see any form. For your own good, then, make certain
16 that you do not sin by making for yourselves an idol in any form at all — whether man or woman,
17 animal or bird,
18 reptile or fish.
19 Do not be tempted to worship and serve what you see in the sky — the sun, the moon, and the stars. The Lord your God has given these to all other peoples for them to worship.
20 But you are the people he rescued from Egypt, that blazing furnace. He brought you out to make you his own people, as you are today.
