Belum cukupkah bagi kita noda yang di Peor itu, yang dari padanya kita belum mentahirkan diri sampai hari ini dan yang menyebabkan umat TUHAN kena tulah,
Sedikitlah bagi kita kesalahan Peor, yang belum kita disucikan dari padanya sampai kepada hari ini, yaitu pada masa bala itu terkena kepada segenap sidang Tuhan?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
[Is] the iniquity of Peor too little for us,.... The worshipping of that idol, when in the plains of Moab; the history of which, see in Numbers 25:2, was that so small a sin, that another must be added to it, or a greater committed? since building an altar seemed designed not for a single action of idolatrous worship, but for the continuance of it, whereas the sin of Peor was only committed at one time, and not continued in:
from which we are not cleansed until this day; not cleared from the shame and disgrace of it, or the guilt of it expiated or removed; but it might be expected, as in the case of the golden calf, that God would still at times punish for it, when provoked by new crimes; or the sense is, that there were those among them that were infected with the same contagion, and whose inclinations were to commit the same, or like sin of idolatry:
although there was a plague in congregation of the Lord; of which twenty four thousand died, Numbers 25:9.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
From which we are not cleansed until this day - Phinehas, who had borne a conspicuous part in vindicating the cause of God against those who fell away to Baal-peor, means that terrible as the punishment had been, there were still those among them who hankered after Baal worship, and even practiced it in secret. (Compare Joshua’s words, Joshua 24:14-23.)
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 22:17. Is the iniquity of Peor too little — See this history, Numbers 25:3, c., and the notes there. Phinehas takes it for granted that this altar was built in opposition to the altar of God erected by Moses, and that they intended to have a separate service, priesthood, &c., which would be rebellion against God, and bring down his curse on them and their posterity and, in order to show that God is jealous of his glory, he refers to the business of Baal Peor, which took place in that very country they were now about to possess, the destructive consequences of which he, through his zeal for the glory of God, was the means of preventing.
