Shemoth [Exodus]

22:20, "19(20)sacrifice to elohiym, is banned, except to YHWH, to him alone."

23:13, "13 now in all which i have said to you, you observe; and the name of elohiym of others, do not remember, do not hear it on your mouth."

23:24, "24 you will not worship their elohey, nor serve them, nor do according to their deeds; but you will utterly overthrow them and break their pillars in pieces."

23:32, " 32 you will make no beriyth with them or with their elohey."

Wayyiqra [Leviticus]

19:4, "4 do not turn to the eloylim; and you will not make cast elohey for yourselves; I am YHWH your elohey."

HaDebariym [Deuteronomy]

4:15-16, "14 and me, YHWH commanded, at that time, to teach you rules and judgments, for you to do them, in the land where you are passing over to possess it. 15 and you will observe very much, for your nafeshoth, for you did not see any form, on the day YHWH spoke to you on choreb, from the midst of the fire. 16 otherwise you act corruptly, and make for you, a carved image, a form of any image, a structure of male or female."

5:6-9, "6 "I, YHWH, your elohey, who brought you out from the land of mitsrayim, from a beyth of slavery. 7 you will have no other elohiym in my presence. 8 you will not make for yourself a graven image, any form which is in the heavens above, and which in the earth beneath, and which is in the waters under the earth. 9 you will not bow yourself to them nor serve them, for I, YHWH, your elohey, am a zealous el, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on a third, and on a fourth, to those hating me."

6:13-14, "13 YHWH your elohey, you will fear, and him, you will serve, and by his name, you will swear. 14 you will not go after other elohiym, from elohey of the peoples who surround you."

10:12-13," 12 and now, yisrael, what is YHWH your elohey asking from you, except to fear YHWH your elohey, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve YHWH your elohey with all your heart, and with all your nefesh."

11:13," 13 and it has been, if you listen diligently to my commands which I am commanding you today, to love YHWH your elohey, and to serve him with all your heart, and with all your nefesh."

12:1-3, " 1 these the rules and the judgments which you observe to do in the land which YHWH, elohey of your fathers, has given to you to possess it, all the days that you are living on the ground. 2 you will utterly destroy all the places where the goyim which you are dispossessing served their elohiym, on the high mountains, and on the heights, and under every green tree. 3 and you will break down their altars, and shivered their standing pillars, and their shrines you will burn with fire, and graven images of their elohiym you will cut down, and have destroy their name out of that place."

Yahusha` [Joshua]

23:6-7, "6 and you will be very strong to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of mosheh, so as not to turn aside from it to the right or to the left; 7 so as not to go in among these nations, these who are left with you; and that you do not make mention of the name of their gods, nor will you swear, nor will you serve them, nor will you bow yourselves to them. 8 but you will cling to YHWH your elohey, as you have done until today.?"

Shoftiym [Judges]

6:10, "10 and i said to you, i am YHWH your god. you will not fear the gods of the amoriy among whom you are dwelling in their land. but you have not listened to my voice."

YirmeYahu [Jeremiah]

16:10-11, "10 and it will be, when you declare to this people all these words, they will say to you, why has YHWH spoken all this great evil against us? or what is our iniquity, or what our sin that we have committed against YHWH our elohey? 11 then you will say to them, because your fathers have forsaken me, says YHWH, and have walked after other elohiym, and have served them, and have worshiped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my thorath."

25:6, " 6 and do not go after other elohiym to serve them and to worship them, and do not provoke me to anger with the works of your hands; and i will do you no harm."

Melekiym Beth [II Kings]

17:12, "9 and the sons of yisrael secretly did the things which were not right against YHWH their god, and built high places for themselves in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city, 10 and set up for themselves pillars and asherahs on every high hill, and under every green tree; 11 and burned incense there in all high places, like the nations that YHWH had removed from their face; and did evil things to provoke YHWH, 12 and served the idols, of which YHWH had said to them, you will not do this thing."

YeshaYahu [Isaiah]

42:8, "8 I am YHWH; that is my name; and I will not give my honor to another, nor my praise to engraved images.”

"you will not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in the heavens above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. you will not worship them or serve them; for i am YHWH your elohey, a jealous el."

Shemoth [Exodus]

20:4, "4 you will not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in the heavens above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth."

20:22-23, "22 then YHWH said to mosheh, "so you will say to the sons of yisrael, 'you yourselves have seen that i have spoken to you from the heavens. 23 you will not make with me, elohey of silver and elohey of gold do not make for yourselves."

32:31, "31 then mosheh returned to YHWH, and said, "alas, this people has committed a great sin, and they have made an elohey of gold for themselves."

34:13-17, "13 but you are to tear down their altars and smash their pillars and cut down their asheriy 14 for you will not prostrate to another el, for YHWH, jealous for his name, el jealous is he;15 otherwise you might make a beriyth with the inhabitants of the land and they would play the whore with their elohey and sacrifice to their elohey, and someone might invite you to eat of his sacrifice, 16 and you might take some of his daughters for your sons, and his daughters might play the whore with their elohey and cause your sons to play the whore with their elohey. 17 you will make for yourself no molten elohey."

Wayyiqra [Leviticus]

19:4, "4 do not turn to the eloylim; and you will not make cast elohey for yourselves; i am YHWH your elohey."

26:1, "1 you will not make eliylim to yourselves; and you will not set up for yourselves carved images, or a pillar. And you will not place any stone image in your land, to bow yourselves to it; for i am YHWH your elohey."

HaDebariym [Deuteronomy]

4:23, "23 observe for yourselves, otherwise you will forget the covenant of YHWH your elohey, which he has cut with you, and make for yourselves a carved image, a form of anything which YHWH your elohey has commanded you."

"you will not bear the name YHWH for nothingness."

"and in that day seven women will cling to one man and say, 'we will provide our own food, and our own clothing, only let us be called by your name.' "

To bear the name YHWH is a serious matter, and in holding His name you represent Him. To bear His name for nothingness is to swear for covenant, and break it, or to claim to be His, and break His thoroth and mistwoth, to act dishonorably while carrying His name.

Shemoth [Exodus]

20:7, "7 you will not bear the name YHWH, your elohey, for YHWH will not cleanse whoever bears his name for nothingness."

19:12, "12 and you will not swear by my name to a falsehood; nor will you pollute the name of your elohey, I am YHWH."

BeMidbar [Numbers]

30:3, "3(2) when a man vows a vow to YHWH, or has sworn an oath to bind a bond on his nafesh, he will not pollute his word; according to all that is going out from his mouth he will do."

HaDebariym [Deuteronomy]

5:11, "11 you will not take up the name YHWH, your elohey, for a vain thing, for YHWH will not acquit him who takes up his name for a vain thing."

10:20, "20 YHWH your elohey you do fear, him you do serve, and to him you do cleave, and by his name you do swear."

ZecharYahu[Zechariah]

5:3-4," 3 and he said to me, this is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth. for from now on everyone who steals will be cut off according to it; and everyone who swears from now on will be cut off according to it. 4 and i will bring it forth, says YHWH tsebaoth. and it will go into the beyth of the thief, and into the beyth of the one who swears by my name falsely."

Qoheleth [Ecclesiasties]

5:4-5, "4 when you vow a vow to El, do not wait to fulfill it. for he has no pleasure in fools. fulfill that which you have vowed. 5 it is better that you should not vow, than that you should vow and not fulfill it."

Yahusha' [Joshua]

2:12, "12 and now, please swear to me by YHWH, since i have dealt with you in kindness, that you will also deal with the beyth of my father in kindness, and will give to me a true token." His name is a serious matter…

9:19, "19 and all the princes said to all the assembly, we have sworn to them by YHWH elohey of yisrael; and now we cannot touch them."

YeshaYahu [Ishaiah]

48:1, "1 hear this, beyth of yaaqob, who are called by the name of yisrael, and have come out from the waters of yahudah, who swear by YHWH's name and profess by the elohey of yisrael, not in truth or in righteousness. 2 for they are called of the set apart city, and rest themselves on the elohey of yisrael; YHWH tsebaoth is his name."

YirmeYahu [Jeremiah]

5:7, "7 why should i pardon you for this? your sons have forsaken me and have sworn by non elohiym. when i adjured them, they then committed adultery and gathered themselves by troops in the house of a whore."
