Deuteronomy 18:9

Deuteronomy 18:9 -

The abominations of these nations ; i . e . certain forms of superstitious usage by which the heathen sought to procure the favor of their deities, to obtain from them direction and counsel, and to penetrate into the hidden future of events. Moses charges the people to avoid all such usages, and not even to learn to do after such abominations (cf. Le Deuteronomy 18:21 ; Numbers 23:23 ; Le 19:26, 31).
