They also built for themselves high places, sacred pillars, and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree;there were even male cult prostitutes in the land. They imitated all the detestable practices of the nations the Lord had dispossessed before the Israelites.

For you know that you were redeemed from your empty way of life inherited from the fathers, not with perishable things like silver or gold,

Asa did what was good and right in the sight of the Lord his God.He removed the pagan altars and the high places. He shattered their sacred pillars and chopped down their Asherah poles.He told the people of Judah to seek the Lord God of their ancestors and to carry out the instruction and the commands.He also removed the high places and the incense altars from all the cities of Judah, and the kingdom experienced peace under him.

At that time, Solomon built a high place for Chemosh, the detestable idol of Moab, and for Milcom, the detestable idol of the Ammonites, on the hill across from Jerusalem.He did the same for all his foreign wives, who were burning incense and offering sacrifices to their gods.

In the same way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them committed sexual immorality and practiced perversions, just as angels did, and serve as an example by undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.

This is why God delivered them over to degrading passions. For even their females exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.The males in the same way also left natural relations with females and were inflamed in their lust for one another. Males committed shameless acts with males and received in their own persons the appropriate penalty of their error.

“ The Lord was extremely angry with your ancestors.So tell the people: This is what the Lord of Hosts says: Return to Me”— this is the declaration of the Lord of Hosts—“ and I will return to you, says the Lord of Hosts.Do not be like your ancestors; the earlier prophets proclaimed to them: This is what the Lord of Hosts says: Turn from your evil ways and your evil deeds. But they did not listen or pay attention to Me”— this is the Lord’s declaration.“ Where are your ancestors now? And do the prophets live forever?But didn’t My words and My statutes that I commanded My servants the prophets overtake your ancestors? They repented and said: As the Lord of Hosts purposed to deal with us for our ways and deeds, so He has dealt with us.”

“ Then I said to their children in the wilderness: Don’t follow the statutes of your fathers, defile yourselves with their idols, or keep their ordinances.I am Yahweh your God. Follow My statutes, keep My ordinances, and practice them.
