**וְאַל תִּדְרְשׁוּ בֵּית אֵל וְגוֹ' וּבְאֵר שֶׁבַע לֹא תַעֲבֹרוּ.** לֹא נֶאֱמַר כָּאן "אַל תָּבוֹאוּ" וְ"אַל תִּדְרְשׁוּ" אֶלָּא "אַל תַּעֲבֹרוּ", לָמַדְנוּ שֶׁלֹּא הָיְתָה שָׁם עֲבוֹדָה זָרָה, אֶלָּא כָּל זְמַן שֶׁהָיָה אֶחָד מִבְּנֵי עֲשֶׂרֶת הַשְּׁבָטִים יוֹצֵא לִדְרֹשׁ וְלֹא עָבַר אֶת בְּאֵר שֶׁבַע עוֹדֶנּוּ יָכוֹל לִפְנוֹת לְבֵית הַמִּקְדָּשׁ לִירוּשָׁלַיִם, וּמִשֶּׁעָבַר אֶת בְּאֵר שֶׁבַע הוּא הַדֶּרֶךְ לָעֵגֶל בֵּית אֵל אוֹ לָעֵגֶל שֶׁבְּדָן. וְכֵן הוּא בְּמָקוֹם אַחֵר (לקמן ח:יד) "חֵי אֱלֹהֶיךָ דָּן וְחֵי וְגוֹ'". וְתֵדַע שֶׁגָּזַר הַכָּתוּב גְּזֵרַת פּוּרְעָנוּת עַל גִּלְגָּל וּבֵית אֵל וְלֹא גָזַר עַל בְּאֵר שֶׁבַע:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**But seek not Bethel etc. nor pass Beersheba**—Here it does not say, “You shall not come,” or “You shall not seek,” but, “You shall not pass.” This teaches us that there was no idol worship there, but as long as one of the members of the ten tribes would go out to seek and did not yet pass Beersheba, he could still turn to the Temple, to Jerusalem, and once he passed Beersheba, that is the way to the calf in Bethel or to the calf in Dan. And so Scripture states: (infra 8:14) “As your god, O Dan, lives, and as the way of Beersheba lives.” And you should know [that this is so], for Scripture pronounced decrees of retribution on Gilgal and Bethel, and did not decree upon Beersheba.

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**for Gilgal shall be exiled**—According to its name is its curse. And, similarly, there is a city near Bethel named Beth-aven in the Book of Joshua (7:2).

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**shall become nought** Heb. לְאָוֶן. [*Jonathan* renders:] לִלְמָא, which is the Aramaic translation of הֶבֶל, vanity, and this is a similarity to (Hosea 12: 12) “If Gilead is nought, it is because they are but futility.”

**וּנְשָׂאתֶם אֶת סִכּוּת מַלְכְּכֶם.** חוֹזֵר לְעִנְיַן הַפּוּרְעָנִיּוֹת שֶׁלְּמַעְלָה: חֹשֶׁךְ לָהֶם יוֹם ה' וְלֹא אוֹר, וּנְשָׂאתֶם בַּגּוֹלָה עִמָּכֶם אֶת גִּלּוּלֵיכֶם, וְיַרְכִּיבוּם הָאוֹיְבִים עַל צַוְּארֵיכֶם לָשֵׂאת עִמָּכֶם בַּגּוֹלָה:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**And you shall carry Siccuth your king**—He returns to the matter of the retribution [mentioned] above. The day of the Lord is darkness for you, and not light, and you shall carry your idols into exile with you. The enemies shall load them on your necks to carry them with you into exile.

**וְהִגְלֵיתִי אֶתְכֶם מֵהָלְאָה לְדַמָּשֶׂק.** כְּלוֹמַר לֹא לִשְׁכֵנוּתֵיכֶם תִּגְלוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר עַד הֵנָּה שֶׁנִּמְסַרְתֶּם בְּיַד מַלְכֵי אֲרָם וְלֹא הָיוּ שׁוֹבִים אֶתְכֶם לְמָקוֹם רָחוֹק אֶלָּא עַד דַּמֶּשֶׂק, וּמֵעַתָּה בְּיַד סַנְחֵרִיב אֶמְסֹר אֶתְכֶם וְהוּא יַגְלֶה אֶתְכֶם לְמַרְחוֹק:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**And I will exile you beyond Damascus**—I.e, you shall not be exiled to your neighbors as heretofore, that you were delivered into the hands of the kings of Aram [In Nach Lublin-Edom, an obvious error] and they did not take you in captivity to a distant place, but to Damascus. From now on, I will deliver you into the hands of Sennacherib, and he shall exile you far away.
