Day 276. How did Israel break the first two commandments? (2025)

Today is day 276 and we are studying The Second Commandment.

276. How did Israel break the first two commandments?

Israel neglected God’s Law, worshiped the gods of the nations around them, and brought images of these gods (idols) into God’s temple, thus corrupting his worship. (Exodus 32; Judges 10:6; 1 Kings 12:28–33; 2 Kings 21:1–9; Psalm 106:19–43; Hosea 13:2; 1 Corinthians 10:1–14)

We will conclude today by praying Proper 19 found on page 620 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
