Thou shalt have none other gods before me. Thou shalt not make thee any graven image/ etc. Deut. V. 2, 6, 7, 8. The whole people, therefore — the adults for themselves, the parents for their children, and masters for their servants — entered into a solemn covenant with God, in which he promised to be their God and they promised to be his people; to have no other God but Jehovah ; to make no graven image to bow to or worship ; to keep holy the Sabbath ; to honor their fathers and mothers; to do ...no murder; not to commit adultery; not to steal; not to bear false wit- ness; and not to covet. In this solemn trans- action parents acted for their children, as they again were to act for theirs from generation to generation. The parent made for the child a profession of faith and promise of obedience. He introduced his child into THESE LITTLE ONES. 113 the covenant which he himself embraced, and circumcision, the seal of that covenant, was, therefore, enjoined to be administered to children.
