Not to make an idol—not to make one oneself or have one made for oneself by others—as Exodus 20:4 states: “Do not make an idol for yourselves.”בשֶׁלֹּא לַעֲשׂוֹת פֶּסֶל, לֹא יַעֲשֶׂה בְּיָדוֹ וְלֹא יַעֲשׂוּ לוֹ אֲחֵרִים; שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: לֹא תַעֲשֶׂה לְךָ פֶסֶל וְכָל תְּמוּנָה.

Not to leave a corpse that was hung on the gallows, as Deuteronomy 21:23 states: “Do not leave his body on the gallows.”סושֶׁלֹּא יָלִין הַצָּלוּב עַל הָעֵץ; שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: לֹא תָלִין נִבְלָתוֹ עַל הָעֵץ.
