Contextual Overview

⁷ When the Israelites cried out to the Lord against the Midianites, ⁸ the Lord sent a prophet to them. He said, "This is what the Lord , the God of Israel, says: I brought you out of Egypt, the land of slavery. ⁹ I saved you from the Egyptians and from all those who were against you. I forced the Canaanites out of their land and gave it to you. ¹⁰ Then I said to you, ‘I am the Lord your God. Live in the land of the Amorites, but do not worship their gods.' But you did not obey me."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I said unto you, I am the Lord your God, c:] The covenant God of them and their fathers, and they ought not to have owned and acknowledged any other besides him:

fear not the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell meaning not a fear of being hurt by them, but such a fear and reverence of them as to worship them, which was only to be given to the Lord. The Amorites are here put for all the Canaanites, they being a principal people among them:

but ye have not obeyed my voice; to cleave to him, fear and worship him; they had been guilty of idolatry, and this is the sin the prophet was sent to reprove them for, and bring them to a sense of.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A similar use of the name Amorite, instead of the more usual name Canaanite, occurs in Joshua 24:15, Joshua 24:18. Perhaps a special reason may be found for the use of Amorite, if the prophet was addressing those who dwelt in the mountains, where the Amorites chiefly dwelt. The idolatries of the Amorites seem, too, to have been preeminently abominable (see 2 Kings 21:11; 1 Kings 21:26). It should be observed that the prophet’s language, as it traces the misery of Israel to their sins, so also intimates the necessity of repentance and of breaking off their sins - especially the sin of idolatry - as preliminary to any deliverance. In exact accordance with this view, Gideon commences his work by throwing down the altar of Baal, and building up the altar of Yahweh Judges 6:24-25.
