Numbers 33:56 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 33:56

Moreover, it shall come to pass
This being the case, they suffering the Canaanites to dwell among them, and they mingling with them, learning their works, and serving their gods: that

I shall do unto you as I thought I should do unto them;
deliver them up into the hands of their enemies, who should carry them captive into other lands.

Numbers 33:56 In-Context

54 And ye shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among your families: to the more ye shall give the more inheritance, and to the fewer ye shall give the less inheritance: every man's [inheritance] shall be in the place where his lot falleth; according to the tribes of your fathers ye shall inherit.

55 But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them [shall be] prickles in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall harass you in the land in which ye dwell.

56 Moreover, it shall come to pass, [that] I shall do to you as I thought to do to them.
