I'le break down their Altars, and will spoil their Ima∣ges.
From whence our Note is this;* 1.1We must not break down superstitious and Idolatrous things to make up our own broken e∣states, for our outward advantage. We should labor the abo∣lishing of those things, and not our own benefit by them; as certainly many do in breaking down things that are naught and superstitious, they endeavor to make up their broken estates and to gain to themselves that way, and there's all they aim at: but saith God, I'le break them down and utterly spoil them; so should we, and look not to our own advantage.
