When they offered any children to him, they heated the statue by a great fire kindled within, and the victim was put into his arms, and thus consumed. Others relate, that the idol, which was hollow, was divided into seven compartments within; in one of which they put flour, in the second turtles, in the third a ewe, in the fourth a ram, in the fifth a calf, in the sixth an ox, and the seventh a child; which were all burnt together by heating the statue inside. The account which Diodorus (l. xx.) gives of the statue of Saturn, to which the Carthaginians, descendants of the Canaanites, sacrificed their children, is very similar. For they had a brazen stature of Saturn, stretching out his hands towards the ground, in such a manner that the children placed within them tumbled down into a pit full of fire. To this account Milton alludes, in Paradise Lost, B. 1. 392.the peopleLeviticus 20:27, 24:14, 24:23; Numbers 15:35, 15:36; Deuteronomy 13:10, 13:11, 17:5-7, 21:21; Acts 7:58, 7:59ReciprocalJoshua 7:25 - all Israel; 1 Kings 11:5 - Milcom; 2 Kings 16:3 - made his son; 21:6 - he made; Ezekiel 14:7 - of the stranger; Amos 5:26 - the tabernacle of your Moloch Verse 3I will setLeviticus 17:10; 1 Peter 3:12 to defileNumbers 19:20; Ezekiel 5:11, 23:38, 23:39 profaneLeviticus 18:21; Ezekiel 20:39; 2 Corinthians 6:16ReciprocalLeviticus 17:4 - be cut off; 22:2 - that they profane not; 23:30 - General; Numbers 15:30 - doeth ought; Deuteronomy 31:16 - and go a; 2 Kings 21:6 - he made; Jeremiah 21:10 - I have; 23:30 - General; Ezekiel 14:8 - I will set; 15:7 - I will set; Amos 2:7 - to profane; Malachi 2:12 - cut; 1 Corinthians 3:17 - any Verse 4hideActs 17:30 and killDeuteronomy 13:8, 17:2-5; Joshua 7:12; 1 Samuel 3:13, 3:14; 1 Kings 20:42; Revelation 2:14ReciprocalDeuteronomy 22:1 - hide thyself Verse 5I willLeviticus 17:10 against hisExodus 20:5; Jeremiah 32:28-35, 32:39 whoringLeviticus 17:7; Psalm 106:39; Jeremiah 3:2; Hosea 2:5, 2:13ReciprocalExodus 34:15 - whoring; Leviticus 23:30 - General; 26:17 - set; 2 Chronicles 21:11 - fornication; Jeremiah 2:9 - with your; 44:11 - I will; Hosea 4:12 - gone Verse 6familiarLeviticus 20:27, 19:26, 19:31; Deuteronomy 18:10-14; Isaiah 8:19 goExodus 34:15, 34:16; Numbers 15:39; Psalm 73:27; Ezekiel 6:9; Hosea 4:12 cut him1 Chronicles 10:13, 10:14
In the days of Moses, superstition was almost the sensus communis of the human race, which then made severe punishment necessary: by means of the Christian dispensation such errors are now exploded, the cultivation of philosophy and natural history having harmonised and contributed their feebler share of light, so that we no longer have to deplore mischiefs occasioned by the silly curiosity attempting to unfold future events.ReciprocalGenesis 41:8 - the magicians of Egypt; Exodus 22:18 - General; Leviticus 18:29 - General; 23:30 - General; 26:17 - set; Numbers 15:30 - doeth ought; 1 Samuel 15:23 - witchcraft; 28:3 - put away; 2 Chronicles 33:6 - he observed; Psalm 106:39 - went; Isaiah 2:6 - and are; Jeremiah 44:11 - I will; Malachi 3:5 - the sorcerers; Acts 8:9 - used; 13:6 - certain; 1 Peter 3:12 - but Verse 7Leviticus 11:44, 19:2; Ephesians 1:4; Philippians 2:12, 2:13; Colossians 3:12; 1 Thessalonians 4:3, 4:7; Habakkuk 3:1; 1 Peter 1:15, 1:16ReciprocalLeviticus 18:2 - General; 19:31 - General; 20:26 - the Lord; 21:8 - for I; Joshua 3:5 - Sanctify; 1 Samuel 16:5 - sanctify yourselves; Ezekiel 20:7 - I am; 37:23 - but Verse 8And yeLeviticus 18:4, 18:5, 19:37; Matthew 5:19, 7:24, 12:50; John 13:17; James 1:22; Revelation 22:14 sanctifyLeviticus 21:8; Exodus 31:13; Ezekiel 20:12, 37:28; 1 Corinthians 1:30; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; 2 Thessalonians 2:13ReciprocalLeviticus 22:16 - for I; 22:32 - hallow you; Deuteronomy 4:1 - unto the statutes; 1 Samuel 16:5 - sanctify yourselves; Ezekiel 37:23 - but Verse 9cursethThe term yekallel signifies not only to curse, but to speak contemptuously, disrespectfully, or to make light of a person, so that all speeches which have a tendency to lessen our parents in the eyes of others, or to render their judgment, piety, etc., suspected or contemptible, is here included; though the act of cursing, or of treating the parent with injurious or opprobrious language, is what is particularly intended.
