Leviticus 18:29
Compare all
27 (for all these abominations the men of the land have done, who were before you, and thus the land is defiled),
28 lest athe land vomit you out also when you defile it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you.  
29 For whoever commits any of these abominations, the persons who commit them shall be1 cut off from among their people.  
30 ‘Therefore you shall keep My1 ordinance, so athat you do not commit any of these abominable customs which were committed before you, and that you do not defile yourselves by them: bI am the Lord your God.’ ”

Leviticus 18:24-30

The situation is the same. God says He's casting these nations out before Israel, and He's warning Israel not to make the same mistake.

This is a judgment from God. He's punishing these people for their wicked practices, and the land itself helps God in getting rid of them.

This is scary, isn't it? But people do these detestable things, which in chapter 18 of Deuteronomy include spiritism, occultism, necromancing—all that type of stuff. The land is defiled. Not just the people are defiled, but the land itself becomes defiled, and it reacts and throws the inhabitants out by means of natural disasters, unproductiveness, famine, disease, war, and things of that nature. The land simply has it up to here, and throws the people out.

God's creation all works together. It's all based on living the righteous way of God. The land can only take so much before God uses it to punish the nation that does these things.
