Exode 23:23 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 23:23

For mine Angel shall go before thee
The same as before described:

and bring thee in unto the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite,
and the Canaanite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite;
six nations are only mentioned, though there were seven; the Girgashites are omitted, though added in the Septuagint version; and this omission of them might be, either because they were swallowed up by one or other of the other nations, particularly the Amorites, who were the most powerful; or rather, having mentioned the most and chiefest, the Lord was not careful, as Aben Ezra observes, to take notice of the least:

and I will cut them off;
from being a nation, either of them; for though there were some of them left, and dwelt about in the land, yet not as a kingdom and nation of themselves, as they had been, but became tributary to the Israelites.

Exode 23:23 In-Context

21 Tiens-toi sur tes gardes en sa présence, et écoute sa voix; ne lui résiste point, parce qu'il ne pardonnera pas vos péchés, car mon nom est en lui.
22 Mais si tu écoutes sa voix, et si tu fais tout ce que je te dirai, je serai l'ennemi de tes ennemis et l'adversaire de tes adversaires.
23 Mon ange marchera devant toi, et te conduira chez les Amoréens, les Héthiens, les Phéréziens, les Cananéens, les Héviens et les Jébusiens, et je les exterminerai.
24 Tu ne te prosterneras point devant leurs dieux, et tu ne les serviras point; tu n'imiteras point ces peuples dans leur conduite, mais tu les détruiras, et tu briseras leurs statues.
25 Vous servirez l'Eternel, votre Dieu, et il bénira votre pain et vos eaux, et j'éloignerai la maladie du milieu de toi.
