Exodus 34:17

You shall make you no molten gods.

AD 749
“You shall make for yourself no molten gods.” You see that he forbids the making of images because of idolatry and that it is impossible to make an image of the bodiless, invisible and uncircumscribed God. “You saw no form on the day that the Lord spoke….” And St. Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, says, “Being therefore God’s offspring, we ought not to think that the Deity is like gold, or silver or stone, a representation by the art and imagination of man.”
