“These are the statutes and judgments which you shall be careful to observe in the land which the Lord God of your fathers is giving you to possess, all the days that you live on the earth. 2 You shall utterly destroy all the places where the nations which you shall dispossess served their gods, on the high mountains and on the hills and under every green tree. 3 And you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and burn their wooden images with fire; you shall cut down the carved images of their gods and destroy their names from that place.
Deuteronomy 12:1-3 (NKJV)
Comment:
We have coded this commandment both amber and green. Amber because it was commanded for the specific situation of the Israelites conquering the land which YHWH had given them, and we are not in the land. But green because the spirit of the commandment is that idols should be destroyed wherever we can do that.
