What the Fathers say

Exodus 22:20

Western Saints

Augustine of Hippo

In the law of the true God it is written, "He that sacrifices to gods shall be put to death, save only to the Lord." The dreadful sanction of this command makes it clear that God wanted no sacrifices offered to such gods, good or bad.
