Verse 41
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
Ver. 41. And offered sacrifice to the idol ] That is, to the devil, Psalms 106:37 , who is ειδωλοχαρης , as Synesius calls him. Howbeit the idolaters pretended herein to worship Jehovah, Exodus 32:4-5 . Their idol, if it would not make a god, would make an excellent devil; as the mayor of Doncaster told the wise men of Cockram concerning their ill-shaped crucifix.
