Deuteronomy — Chapter 32
These annotations are from the original 1609 Douay Old Testament, the first complete English Catholic Bible translation, produced by English scholars in exile at the English College of Douai. The archaic spelling is preserved.
This content was digitized from the original 1609 Douay (Old Testament) and 1582 Rheims (New Testament) print editions by OCR. The OCR process sometimes confused print page numbers with verse numbers, and may have assigned annotations to the wrong chapter. Chapter and verse labels on this page reflect the OCR output from the original print pagination and may not correspond to canonical Scripture chapter/verse numbers. For canonical reference, consult a standard Douay-Rheims edition. The annotation texts themselves are authentic 1609/1582 Douay-Rheims content.

Verse 18
Forgotten our Lord.] Caluin (li. 1. Instit. c. 11. parag. 9.) contending that it is idolatrie to worship Christ in his picture, saith the idolatrie committed about the molten calfe (Exod. 32.) consisted in worshipping the true God in that image of a calfe: affirming that the Iewes were not so inconsiderate, as not to remember, that it was God which had brought them out of the Land of Aegypt. Quite contrarie to this text, which saith: God that begat thee thou hast forsaken, and hast forgotten. Caluin contradicteth the holie Scripture.
