Animal Worship.

Mr.. ]. McLennan, in his paper on
'The Worship of Plants and Ami
mails" calls our attention to many
evidences that the early Romans, as
well as the Greeks, worshiped to.
TENS The Old Testament records
show many indications Of animal
worship among the Israelites, which
must have lasted for ages before the
prohibition inculcated in the second
line Of the decalogue was formulated.
At a comparative late date Jehovah
was worshiped under the popular
symbol Of bull, while the 12 oxen
upholding the laver in Solomons
temple. as well as the horns adorn.
ing the altar, were drawn from tho
prevalent bull worship" Modern
research has also proved that the
cherubim were represented in the
form Of winged bulls. M Lenor-
mant, in his famous book on the
Beginnings of History, says that,
during the time of the kings and
prophets most assuredly the cheru.
