This film contains many biblical allusions, the story of
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
Moloch
being one of them. Here are some of those
|
|
|
references:
|
|
|
|
“And you shall not let any of your seed pass through
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mo'lech,
neither shall you profane the name of your God: I
|
|
|
am
the Lord” -Leviticus 18.21
|
|
|
|
“And they built the high places of the Ba’al, which are in the
|
|
|
|
|
valley
of Ben-hinnom, to cause their sons and their
|
|
|
daughters
to pass through the fire Mo'lech; which I did not
|
|
|
command
them, nor did it come into my mind that they
|
|
|
should
do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin” -Jeremiah
