“But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.”
But thus shall you deal with them; you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and hew down their Asherim, and burn their graven images with fire; -- the systematic destruction of Canaanite religious infrastructure: altars, pillars (masseboth), Asherim (wooden poles representing the goddess), and images. Religious objects must be obliterated.
