“The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:”
Deuteronomy 4:18 (KJV)
Commentary on Deuteronomy 4:18
The prohibition includes aquatic creatures—'likeness of any fish that is in the waters.' This completes the comprehensive ban covering all creation realms: land, air, and sea, corresponding to Genesis 1 creation domains. No aspect of creation may represent the Creator. Ancient religions deified seas and water creatures (Dagon, Leviathan mythology), yet Scripture insists these are merely creatures under God's sovereign control (Psalm 104:25-26). The exhaustive prohibition underscores God's transcendent otherness—He is categorically different from all created things.
