Leviticus 20

The Lord said to Moses,

Interior of the temple of Moloch from Gustav Flaubert’s Salammbô by Georges-Antoine Rochegrosse

2 “Say to the Israelites: ‘Any Israelite or any foreigner residing in Israel who sacrifices any of his children to Moloch is to be put to death. The members of the community are to stone him.

3 I myself will set my face against him and will cut him off from his people;

for by sacrificing his children to Moloch, he has defiled my sanctuary and profaned my holy name.

4 If the members of the community close their eyes when that man sacrifices one of his children to Moloch and if they fail to put him to death,

5 I myself will set my face against him and his family and will cut them off from their people together with all who follow him in prostituting themselves to Moloch.

— Leviticus 20:1-5

* But He answered and said, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.’” — Matthew 4:4
