Instead of making two threads per book, I'm making just one. There's no point in reading this thread, unless you want to memorize verses mainly against child sacrifice like me though Idk if I'm going to do that since there's so many verses. I'll bold the verses about child sacrifice or abortion.
These are the verses I liked:
Exodus
Jeremiah
These are the verses I liked:
Exodus
“If someone curses father or mother, the penalty is death.
Exodus 21:22-23“When there’s a fight and in the fight a pregnant woman is hit so that she miscarries but is not otherwise hurt, the one responsible has to pay whatever the husband demands in compensation. But if there is further damage, then you must give life for life—eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.
I like this because I think slavery should be legal.“A thief must make full restitution for what is stolen. The thief who is unable to pay is to be sold for his thieving. If caught red-handed with the stolen goods, and the ox or donkey or lamb is still alive, the thief pays double.
“Anyone who has sex with an animal gets the death penalty.
This is important because children were sacrificed to Molech(this is in Leviticus and Kings) and Baal(this is in Jeremiah)(and probably other books I've not yet read).“Anyone who sacrifices to a god other than GOD alone must be put to death.
Other translations say "foreigner" instead of "stranger."“Don’t abuse or take advantage of strangers; you, remember, were once strangers in Egypt.
Don’t worship any other god. GOD—his name is The-Jealous-one—is a jealous God.
Jeremiah
When I delivered your ancestors out of Egypt, I never said anything to them about wanting burnt offerings and sacrifices as such
This seems to be about infanticide.“The people of Judah have lived evil lives while I’ve stood by and watched.” GOD’s Decree. “... They’ve constructed Topheth altars for burning babies in prominent places all through the valley of Ben-hinnom, altars for burning their sons and daughters alive in the fire—a shocking perversion of all that I am and all I command.
All this is nothing compared to you, O GOD.
I have pronounced doom on you. Why? Because of the disastrous life you’ve lived, Israel and Judah alike, goading me to anger with your continuous worship and offerings to that sorry god Baal.”
“But blessed is the man who trusts me, GOD,
This is chapter 19.Doom—because they have massacred innocent people. Doom—because they’ve built altars to that no-god Baal, and burned their own children alive in the fire as offerings to Baal, an atrocity I never ordered, never so much as hinted at!
...
I’m canceling all the plans Judah and Jerusalem had for this place, and I’ll have them killed by their enemies.
Don’t take advantage of the homeless, the orphans, the widows. Stop the murdering!
Tbh I don't feel like rereading this to know the context. God said this.Expect love, love, and more love!
I’ll wipe the slate clean for each of them. I’ll forget they ever sinned!” GOD’s Decree.
God said this.And then they went out and built shrines to the god Baal in the valley of Hinnom, where they burned their children in sacrifice to the god Molech—I can hardly conceive of such evil!—turning the whole country into one huge act of sin.
This is Johanan and his associates.Whether we like it or not, we’ll do it. We’ll obey whatever our GOD tells us.
Things are going to get worse before they get better. But don’t worry. I’ll keep you alive through the whole business.’
