THE MESSAGE
They didn't wipe out those godless cultures as ordered by God ; Instead they intermarried with the heathen, and in time became just like them. They worshiped their idols, were caught in the trap of idols. They sacrificed their sons and daughters at the altars of demon gods. They slit the throats of their babies, murdered their infant girls and boys. They offered their babies to Canaan's gods; the blood of their babies stained the land. Their way of life stank to high heaven; they lived like whores.
New American Standard Bible (1995)
They did not destroy the peoples, As the Lord commanded them,

Contextual Overview

34They did not destroy the [pagan] peoples [in Canaan], As the LORD commanded them,35But they mingled with the [idolatrous] nations And learned their ways, 36And served their idols, Which became a [dreadful] snare to them. 37They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons 38And shed innocent blood, Even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; And the land was polluted with their blood. 39In this way they became unclean in their practices; They played the prostitute in their own deeds [by giving their worship, which belongs to God alone, to other "gods"]. 40Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against His people And He detested His own inheritance. 41He gave them into the hands of the nations, And those who hated them ruled over them. 42Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were subdued under the [powerful] hand of their enemies. 43Many times He rescued them; But they were rebellious in their counsel, And sank down in their wickedness.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

They did not destroy the nations,.... Here begins an account of their sins and provocations, after they were settled in the land of Canaan. They did not destroy the inhabitants of the land, of the seven nations; whose land was given to them as an inheritance, and of which the Canaanites were dispossessed for their sins, and to be destroyed.

Concerning whom the Lord commanded them; that they should destroy them; the command is in Deuteronomy 7:1. God's commands are to be obeyed; they are neither to be added to, nor diminished from; his commands are transgressed and violated by sins of omission or commission; the Israelites might plead mercy, but this was no excuse to an express command: the same sin Saul was afterwards guilty of, with respect to one of these nations, 1 Samuel 15:2. Those spiritual Canaanites, the sinful deeds of the body, are to be mortified, and not indulged and spared, Colossians 3:5.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

They did not destroy the nations - The Canaanites, Hivites, Jebusites, etc.; the nations that inhabited the land of Canaan.

Concerning whom the Lord commanded them - The command on this subject was positive; and it was to destroy them, to spare none of them. Numbers 33:52; Deuteronomy 7:5, Deuteronomy 7:16.
