καθελὼν, cf. Deuteronomy 7:1. In LXX the stronger verb ἐξαίρειν is used, but καθαιρεῖν in LXX often means to destroy, Jeremiah 24:6; Psalms 27:5, and so in classical Greek. Weiss prefers the force of the verb as in Luke 1:52, to cast down, i.e., from their sovereignty. - κατεκληροδότησεν, see critical notes. If we adopt reading of R.V. W.H [260] : “he gave them their land for an inheritance”.
