Deuteronomy 12

Deuteronomy 12

God commands the Israelites to destroy every trace of pagan worship in Canaan—their altars, sacred stones, and idols. Crucially, all worship and sacrifices must be centralized at one place that the Lord will choose (later Jerusalem). This centralization prevents the nation from adopting local Canaanite gods and ensures the purity and unity of their national worship. They are permitted to eat meat at home, but all holy offerings must be taken to the designated central sanctuary.
