ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you--not, however, by expulsion, but extermination (Deu 7:1). and destroy all their pictures--obelisks for idolatrous worship (see on Lev 26:1). and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places--by metonymy for all their groves and altars, and materials of worship on the tops of hills.
