Paul describes the origin of idolatry in Rom .
1 :
21 -
25 :
men forsook God ,
and sank into ignorance and moral corruption (
1 :
28 ).

or the worship of trees ,
rivers ,
hills ,
stones ,
etc .
(
2 .)
Nature worship ,
the worship of the sun ,

(

In Scripture ,
idolatry is regarded as of heathen origin ,
and as being imported among the Hebrews through contact with heathen nations .
The first allusion to idolatry is in the account of Rachel stealing her father '
s teraphim (
Gen .
31 :
19 ),
which were the relics of the worship of other gods by Laban '
s progenitors "
on the other side of the river in old time " (
Josh .
24 :
2 ).
During their long residence in Egypt the Hebrews fell into idolatry ,
and it was long before they were delivered from it (
Josh .
24 :
14 ;
Ezek .
20 :
7 ).
Many a token of God '
s displeasure fell upon them because of this sin .
The idolatry learned in Egypt was probably rooted out from among the people during the forty years '
wanderings ;
but when the Jews entered Palestine ,
they came into contact with the monuments and associations of the idolatry of the old Canaanitish races ,
and showed a constant tendency to depart from the living God and follow the idolatrous practices of those heathen nations .
It was their great national sin ,
which was only effectually rebuked by the Babylonian exile .
That exile finally purified the Jews of all idolatrous tendencies .
The first and second commandments are directed against idolatry of every form .
Individuals and communities were equally amenable to the rigorous code .
The individual offender was devoted to destruction (
Ex .
22 :
20 ).
His nearest relatives were not only bound to denounce him and deliver him up to punishment (
Deut .
13 :
20 -
10 ),
but their hands were to strike the first blow when ,
on the evidence of two witnesses at least ,
he was stoned (
Deut .
17 :
2 -
7 ).
To attempt to seduce others to false worship was a crime of equal enormity (
13 :
6 -
10 ).
An idolatrous nation shared the same fate .
No facts are more strongly declared in the Old Testament than that the extermination of the Canaanites was the punishment of their idolatry (
Ex .
34 :
15 ,
16 ;
Deut .
7 ;
12 :
29 -
31 ;
20 :
17 ),
and that the calamities of the Israelites were due to the same cause (
Jer .
2 :
17 ). "
A city guilty of idolatry was looked upon as a cancer in the state ;
it was considered to be in rebellion ,
and treated according to the laws of war .
Its inhabitants and all their cattle were put to death ."
Jehovah was the theocratic King of Israel ,
the civil Head of the commonwealth ,
and therefore to an Israelite idolatry was a state offence (
1 Sam .
15 :
23 ),
high treason .
On taking possession of the land ,
the Jews were commanded to destroy all traces of every kind of the existing idolatry of the Canaanites (
Ex .
23 :
24 ,
32 ;
34 :
13 ;
Deut .
7 :
5 ,
25 ;
12 :
1 -
3 ).
In the New Testament the term idolatry is used to designate covetousness (
Matt .
6 :
24 ;
Luke 16 :
13 ;
Col .
3 :
5 ;
Eph .
5 :
5 ).
