Primary Verses:
- Ex. 23:31-33
-
"And I will set thy bounds from
the Red sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and
from the desert unto the river: for I will deliver the
inhabitants of the land into your hand; and thou shalt
drive them out before thee. Thou shalt make no covenant
with them, nor with their gods.
They shall not dwell
in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me:
for if thou serve their gods, it will surely be a snare
unto thee."
Supporting Verses:
- Josh. 23:11-13
-
"Take good heed therefore unto
yourselves, that ye love the LORD your God. Else if ye
do in any wise go back, and cleave unto the remnant of
these nations, even
these that remain among you, and shall make marriages
with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:
Know for a certainty that the LORD your God will no more
drive out any of these nations from before you; but they
shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in your
sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off
this good land which the LORD your God hath given you."
