Commentary on Psalms 106:34

Theological / Devotional

Did not destroy. The Israelites did not destroy the idolatrous nations, as God had commanded (see Ex. 23:32, 33; Deut. 7:2; Joshua 23:12, 13; Judges 1:21, 27; etc.). Obedience to this command was of the utmost importance, for it was contact with the heathen that dragged Israel to her ruin.

Verses 34–39 discuss the continued sinning after entering Canaan.
