Contextual Overview

⁵⁰ On the plains of Moab by the Jordan River across from Jericho, the Lord spoke to Moses. He said, ⁵¹ "Speak to the Israelites and tell them, ‘When you cross the Jordan River and go into Canaan, ⁵² force out all the people who live there. Destroy all of their carved statues and metal idols. Wreck all of their places of worship. ⁵³ Take over the land and settle there, because I have given this land to you to own. ⁵⁴ Throw lots to divide up the land by family groups, giving larger portions to larger family groups and smaller portions to smaller family groups. The land will be given as the lots decide; each tribe will get its own land. ⁵⁵ "‘But if you don't force those people out of the land, they will bring you trouble. They will be like sharp hooks in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will bring trouble to the land where you live. ⁵⁶ Then I will punish you as I had planned to punish them.'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you,.... Not at once, but gradually; and the sense is, that they should use their utmost endeavours wholly to extirpate them:

and destroy all their pictures; their idolatrous ones; the pictures of their gods, or the statues and figured stones of them: the Targum of Jonathan interprets it,

"all the temples of their worship;''

and the Jerusalem Targum,

"all their idols;''

so called, as Jarchi notes, because they covered the floor with a pavement of marble stones, to worship upon them by the stretching out of their hands and feet, according to Leviticus 26:1,

and destroy all their molten images; of gold, silver, c.

and quite pluck down all their high places their temples, groves, and altars built upon them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The expulsion of the Canaanites and the destruction of their monuments of idolatry had been already enjoined (see the marginal references); and Numbers 33:54 is substantially a repetition from Exo. 26:53-55. But the solemn warning of Numbers 33:55-56 is new. A call for it had been furnished by their past transgressions in the matter of Baal-peor, and by their imperfect fulfillment, at the first, of Moses’ orders in the Midianite war.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Numbers 33:52. Ye shall - destroy all their pictures — משכיתם maskiyotham, from שחה sachah, to be like, or resemble, either pictures, carved work, or embroidery, as far as these things were employed to exhibit the abominations of idolatry. Molten images צלמי מסכתם tsalmey massechotham, metallic talismanical figures, made under certain constellations, and supposed in consequence to be possessed of some extraordinary influences and virtues.
