But were mingled among the Heathen, etc.] Not only dwelt among them, but made covenants and contracts, carried on trade and commerce, and intermarried with them, contrary to the express law of God, (<050702>Deuteronomy 7:2-4). Nor should saints have communion with wicked men, especially in things sinful and superstitious, (<470614>2 Corinthians 6:14-16 <490511>Ephesians 5:11). And learned their works; not their civil works and actions, their trades and business, but their idolatrous works; of which a detail is given in the following verses: “evil communications corrupt good manners”, (<461533>1 Corinthians 15:33).
