Joshua 23:12 - Additional Comments
Separation from these nations was critical, both for their relationship with God and for their success against enemies. See also 2 Cor 6:14-18, 7:1. History shows that Israel refused to pay the price of separation, and time and again had to pay the price. The history books reveal that since Israel did transgress God's law, she suffered mercilessly at the hands of the heathen (cf. the Babylonian captivity, Antiochus Epiphanes, the Roman general Titus, the persecutions of the Middle Ages, the Spanish Inquisition, the ghettos of Warsaw, and the crematoriums at Auschwitz and Dachau).
