Exd 20:4-7 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Catholic Douay Rehims Version:
EX 20:4-6 Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under the earth. Thou shalt not adore them, nor serve them: I am the Lord thy God, mighty, jealous, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me: And shewing mercy unto thousands to them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Thank you for blundering into such a good a teaching opportunity.
Citing the text does not provide an interpretation. Again, exactly how do you know your interpretation is right and the Catholic interpretation is wrong? What is your authority for your understanding, Mrs. Johnson's 3rd grade reading class?
Perhaps parsing this will make it easier for you. What do you interpret "graven" to mean and what is a "Graven Image"?
