'Thou shalt not do so unto the Lord thy God: for every abomination to the Lord, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters have they burnt in the fire to their gods' — the prohibition against imitating Canaanite worship reaches its extreme case with child sacrifice, making clear that the command to destroy the Canaanite altars is grounded not in ethnic hostility but in the moral horror of practices that the Lord himself names as hateful. Archaeological and textual evidence for child sacrifice in the ancient Levant (the Tophet at Carthage, the Molech references in Jeremiah and 2 Kings) confirms the historical reality behind the biblical polemic. The verse grounds cross-cultural ethical judgment in divine character rather than in relative cultural preference.
