III. “You Shall Have No Other Gods Before Me”

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

2112
The first commandment condemns polytheism. It requires man neither to believe
in, nor to venerate, other divinities than the one true God. Scripture
constantly recalls this rejection of “idols, (of) silver and gold, the
work of men’s hands. They have mouths, but do not speak; eyes, but do not
see.” These empty idols make their worshippers empty: “Those who make
them are like them; so are all who trust in them.”⁴² God, however,
is the “living God”⁴³ who gives life and intervenes in
history.
