About this listen

The name "Moloch" resonates through history with a chilling association; it is a name synonymous with the most extreme forms of religious fanaticism, specifically the practice of child sacrifice. Mentioned in the Bible and referenced in various historical texts, Moloch has become a potent symbol of evil, a deity demanding the ultimate price for favor. The history of this figure is complex, shrouded in the mists of antiquity and open to varied interpretations by scholars, historians, and theologians alike. This book aims to objectively explore the origins, worship, and subsequent cultural legacy of Moloch, delving into both the well-documented accounts and the more obscure references that help to build a comprehensive picture of this ancient phenomenon.
