The Last Supper painting by Leonardo da Vinci is not the Gospel.
I tried to emphasize that it is the Jewish people who do not have statues or graven images in Jerusalem and that it is non-Jewish people who brought in statues, etc. It was not my intention to indicate that any statue is an abomination to the Lord.
Exodus 20:5 "Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me;"
That is, "make in order to bow." Under the auspices of Moses himself, figures of cherubim (Exodus 25:19), brazen serpents (Numbers 21:6-9), oxen (1 Kings 7:25), and many other things in the earth beneath, were made and never condemned. The mere making was no sin, it was the making with the intent to give idolatrous worship.
