“and went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods that they didn’t know and that he had not given to them.”
Deuteronomy 29:26 (WEB)
Context Reading
24Even all the nations will say, “Why has Yahweh done this to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?” 25Then men will say, “Because they abandoned the covenant of Yahweh, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt, 26and went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods that they didn’t know and that he had not given to them. 27Therefore Yahweh’s anger burned against this land, to bring on it all the curses that are written in this book. 28Yahweh rooted them out of their land in anger, in wrath, and in great indignation, and thrust them into another land, as it is today.”
