SILEX v2

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)

and they have led astray

Same as P1No — adjusted for context
RationaleAdjusted to convey the primary contextual meaning, which is leading astray to idolatry, as per the verb's connotation and the typical use in Deuteronomistic context; 'drove away' is more physical expulsion and less fitting here.
