Joshua 24:23 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The strange gods which are among you; those idols which yon either brought out of Egypt, or have taken in Canaan, which I have too much reason to believe that some of you, contrary to God's command, do keep, whether for the preciousness of the matter, or rather for some secret inclination to superstition and idolatry, as the following words imply. See Joshua 24:14.

Joshua 24:23

23 Now therefore put away, said he, the strange gods which are among you, and incline your heart unto the LORD God of Israel.
