Bel » Babylonian » God
I will make him vomit what he swallowed.
The nations will no longer stream to him;
even Babylon’s wall will fall.
Their idols are consigned to beasts and cattle.
The images you carry are loaded,
as a burden for the weary animal.
proclaim and raise up a signal flag;
proclaim, and hide nothing.
Say: Babylon is captured;
Bel
Marduk is devastated;
her idols are put to shame;
her false gods, devastated.
Iconoclasm » Idols to be destroyed
You are not to make a covenant with the people who are living in this land, and you are to tear down their altars. But you have not obeyed Me. What is this you have done?
Instead, you must tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, and chop down their Asherah poles.
Instead, this is what you are to do to them: tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, cut down their Asherah poles, and burn up their carved images.
You must not bow down to their gods or worship them. Do not imitate their practices. Instead, demolish them and smash their sacred pillars to pieces.
you must drive out all the inhabitants of the land before you, destroy all their stone images and cast images, and demolish all their high places.
proclaim and raise up a signal flag;
proclaim, and hide nothing.
Say: Babylon is captured;
Bel
Marduk is devastated;
her idols are put to shame;
her false gods, devastated.
You must burn up the carved images of their gods. Don't covet the silver and gold on the images and take it for yourself, or else you will be ensnared by it, for it is abhorrent to the Lord your God. You must not bring any abhorrent thing into your house, or you will be set apart for destruction like it. You are to utterly detest and abhor it, because it is set apart for destruction.
"Be careful to follow these statutes and ordinances in the land that the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess all the days you live on the earth. Destroy completely all the places where the nations you are driving out worship their gods-on the high mountains, on the hills, and under every flourishing tree. Tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, burn up their Asherah poles, cut down the carved images of their gods, and wipe out their names from every place. read more.
