1 Corinthians 8:5
Douay-Rheims
For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many, and lords many).
Adam Clarke
There be that are called gods - There are many images that are supposed to be representations of divinities: but these divinities are nothing, the figments of mere fancy; and these images have no corresponding realities. Whether in heaven or in earth - As the sun, moon, planets, stars, the ocean, rivers, trees, etc. And thus there are, nominally, gods many, and lords many.
