2 Kings 17:36 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 17:36

But the Lord, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt,
with a great power, and a stretched out arm
Which is observed, to show the obligations they lay under, in point of gratitude, to serve the Lord:

him shall ye fear, and him shall ye worship, and to him shall ye do
sacrifice:
and him only, and not other gods; none but he being the object of religious fear and divine worship, and to whom sacrifices should be offered.

2 Kings 17:36 In-Context

34 So to this day they go on in their old ways, not worshipping the Lord or keeping his orders or his ways or the law and the rule which the Lord gave to the children of Jacob, to whom he gave the name Israel;

35 And the Lord made an agreement with them and gave them orders, saying, You are to have no other gods; you are not to give worship to them or be their servants or make them offerings:

36 But the Lord, who took you out of the land of Egypt with his great power and his outstretched arm, he is your God, to whom you are to give worship and make offerings:

37 And the rules and the orders and the law which he put in writing for you, you are to keep and do for ever; you are to have no other gods.

38 And you are to keep in memory the agreement which I have made with you; and you are to have no other gods.
