* Not for.
Though the Canaanites were expelled for their wickedness, it
does not follow, that the Israelites were established in their
room on account of any distinguished virtue, or because they
deserved it. On many occasions, it may be seen in the history
of the world, that God punishes the wicked by the
instrumentality of other men, who are as wicked as themselves.
Not the Israelites' righteousness, but the wickedness of the
inhabitants, and the promise of God to their fathers, was the
cause of their obtaining Canaan.
