Bible Question: What are some of the worship practices of the cananites or baal worshipers that God detested? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Tw22, The very first of the Ten Commandments says "You shall have no other gods before me." (Exodus 20:3) Therefore, the greatest sin that the Canaanites and the followers of Baal committed (including their worship) was that of idolatry. And all of their other sins and practices fall from that one point of failure and rebellion against God - their carved images (Ex. 32; Num. 33:52), and high places to other gods (Num. 33:52; Deut. 12:2), and building of temples to other gods (1 Kings 12:31), the appointing of priests to false gods (1 Kings 12:31), and sacrifies to other gods (1 Kings 12:32), building Asherah poles (Deut. 16:21), and burning children in fire (Jer. 7:31; 2 Kings 17:31, Ezekiel 16:21; 20:31).
