Ezekiel 16:36

Context
16:36 This is what the sovereign Lord says: Because your lust³ was poured out and your nakedness was uncovered in your prostitution with your lovers, and because of all your detestable idols, and because of the blood of your children you have given to them,

¹sn The sacrifice of children was prohibited in Lev 18:21; 20:2; Deut 12:31; 18:10.

²tn Heb “and you gave them, by passing them through to them.” Some believe this alludes to the pagan practice of making children pass through the fire.

³tn The Hebrew word occurs only here in the OT.
