Jeremiah 19:6
"and have built the high places of Baal to burn their children in the fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I didn’t command, nor speak, which didn’t even enter into my mind."
Key Reflection
This verse describes a horrifying practice where parents would offer their children as burnt offerings to the pagan god Baal. This act went against all divine commands and represented a deep spiritual corruption, showing the extent to which the people had abandoned Yahweh for false worship.
