SEV Biblia, Chapter 20:23
Y no andéis en las prácticas de los gentiles que yo echaré de delante de vosotros; porque ellos hicieron todas estas cosas, y los tuve en abominación.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 23. And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation which I cast out before you , etc.] Nation seems to be put for nations, for there were seven nations cast out for them; though the Canaanites may be intended, being a general name for the whole: some think the Amorites are meant, who were a principal nation, and notorious for their wickedness: hence we often meet with this phrase in Jewish writings, “the way of the Amorites”, as being exceeding bad, and so to be avoided, and by no means to be walked in, ( Genesis 15:16); for they committed all these things ; were guilty of all the idolatries, incests, and uncleannesses before mentioned, and forbid under severe penalties: and therefore I abhorred them ; the sins committed by them, being so abominable and detestable: their persons, though the creatures of God, were had in abhorrence by him, and this he showed by casting them out of the land; and hereby it is suggested, that, should they, the Israelites, be guilty of the like, they also would be rejected and abhorred by him: the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan are, “my Word abhorred them,” Christ, the eternal Word, ( Psalm 45:7).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-27 - These verses repeat what had been said before, but it was needful ther should be line upon line. What praises we owe to God that he has taugh the evil of sin, and the sure way of deliverance from it! May we have grace to adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things; may we have no fellowship with unfruitful works of darkness, but reprove them __________________________________________________________________
