God’s messenger comes to Bokim

Jdg 2:1–5

2Then Yahweh’s messenger went from Gilgal to Bokim and told the Israelis, “I brought you all out of Egypt and led you here to this land that I promised to your ancestors. I had said that I wouldn’t ever break my agreement with you all, 2but that you mustn’t form treaties with the peoples who lived here, rather you must tear down their altars. But you all haven’t obeyed what I said. What have you gone and done?[ref] 3So I’m telling you that I won’t drive your enemies out ahead of you, but they’ll be like thorns in your sides and you’ll all end up being enslaved to their idols.” 4When Yahweh’s messenger finished saying that, the people wept loudly, 5so they called that place Bokim (which means ‘weeping’) and they offered sacrifices to Yahweh there.

Exo 34:12-13:

12Be very careful not to make any treaties with any of the current inhabitants of the land that you’re about to enter, in case it ends up trapping you. 13What you must do instead is to break down their altars and smash their pillars, and cut down the poles used to worship their god Asherah.[ref]


34:13: Deu 16:21.

Deu 7:2-5:

2When your god Yahweh enables you to defeat them, you must kill them all. You must make no agreement with them, and you must not act mercifully toward them. 3Don’t intermarry with them: don’t allow your daughters to marry their sons, or your sons to marry any of their daughters 4because they’d turn your sons away from me, and they’d end up serving other gods. Then Yahweh would become very angry with you all and would quickly destroy you. 5What you all should do to those people is to break down their altars and smash their stone pillars, cut their Asherah poles to pieces, and burn up their idols.[ref]
