Oh, just for the record, in case you can’t discern, that painting above is called “The Ten Commandments.”
You see how each command is being disobeyed by some, AND obeyed by another in each frame? See the demons urging disobedience...and the angels urging obedience?

I missed this explanation, as you can probably tell. Looking it up, I find that the painter and Luther were friends since long before Luther’s break with Catholicism. It was painted in 1516. Hardly evidence of anything, other than Luther’s appreciation of the artwork of a personal friend. Besides, its context in the town hall, rather than a church, should tell you something. Presumably, he found the Ten Commandments a basis for civil law; antinomianism has to do with moral law, not civil law.
