Deuteronomy 18:15

"For these nations that you shall dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery and to diviners; but as for you, the LORD your God has not allowed you so to do."

Key Reflection

This verse contrasts the practices of the Canaanite nations, who relied on sorcery and divination, with Israel's covenantal obligation under the Lordship of God. It emphasizes that while other peoples embraced these pagan customs, Israel was commanded to remain faithful and avoid such forms of idolatry, maintaining their unique relationship with the LORD.
