You took along the tent of Moloch This phrase refers to the Israelites' idolatrous practices during their wilderness journey. "Moloch" was a Canaanite deity associated with child sacrifice, a practice that was strictly forbidden by God (Leviticus 18:21). The Hebrew root for Moloch is "מלך" (Melek), meaning "king," indicating the high status this idol held among its worshippers. Historically, the worship of Moloch involved rituals that were abominable to the Lord, highlighting the Israelites' rebellion and the severity of their sin.
