וְנִתַּצְתֶּ֣ם אֶת־מִזְבּחֹתָ֗ם וְשִׁבַּרְתֶּם֙ אֶת־מַצֵּ֣בֹתָ֔ם וַאֲשֵֽׁרֵיהֶם֙ תִּשְׂרְפ֣וּן בָּאֵ֔שׁ וּפְסִילֵ֥י אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶ֖ם תְּגַדֵּע֑וּן וְאִבַּדְתֶּ֣ם אֶת־שְׁמָ֔ם מִן־הַמָּק֖וֹם הַהֽוּא׃
Gibain ninyo ang kanilang mga altar, durugin ninyo ang kanilang mga haliging bato, sunugin ninyo sa apoy ang kanilang mga Ashera, putul-putulin ninyo ang mga inukit na larawan ng kanilang mga diyos, at burahin ninyo ang kanilang pangalan sa lugar na iyon.
The Jewish Spiritual Heroes
In Deuteronomy (12:3) God says to Moses and Aaron to tell the Jews that each should take a lamb for the Paschal offering. Rabbi Ishmael asked: “Is it possible that both heard the words of God and that both spoke to the Jewish people?” But he explained it to mean that when Moses spoke, Aaron listened attentively to what he had to say, and it was considered as if both heard the words of God.
