Icon Worship
Transcription:
"The 2nd concerns ye meanes in by which Y is to be worshiped. Y prohibits ye making of any visible image or representation of. Y worshipping him by it."
Comment:
This annotation, either by "Lewis" or by William Chambers, explains the Second Commandment. It reflects the Anglican view of religious icons, which particularly prohibits worshipping "graven images" that depict God. It is unclear what "Y" specifically represents, but it either stands for "YHWH" or it is the letter "G," which would stand for "God." In either case, the meaning is clear that Christians are prohibited from depicting God through visual representations.
