11-13 (Joshua 22:15-34). God’s Abhorrence of Idolatry—Here the Lord gave expression to His abhorrence of idolatry. Those heathen nations had turned from the worship of the living God, and were paying homage to demons. Shrines and temples, beautiful statues, and costly monuments, all the most ingenious and expensive works of art, had held the thoughts and affections of the veriest slavery to Satanic delusions.{2BC 996.4}

11-13 (kp. 22,15-34). Guds afsky for afgudsdyrkelse. - Her gav Herren udtryk for Sin afsky for afgudsdyrkelse. De hedenske nationer havde vendt sig fra at tilbede den levende Gud, og hyldede dæmoner. Helligdomme og templer, smukke statuer, og kostbare monumenter, var det mest sindrige og kostbare kunstværker, havde holdt tankerne og hengivenheden til rendyrket slaveri af sataniske bedrag.
