God and Molech - Child Sacrifice in the Bible | Documentary

Explore the dark history of child sacrifice in ancient Israel in our new documentary, inspired by Dr. Francesca Stavrakopoulou’s research in “King Manasseh and Child Sacrifice: Biblical Distortions of Historical Realities.“ This film uncovers the truth behind the terrifying rituals dedicated to deities like Moloch and Yahweh, challenging our perceptions of morality and the divine. We delve into the stories of Abraham and Isaac, Jephthah’s daughter, and more, examining the origins, effects, and enduring legacy of these practices on religion, society, and morality. Featuring interviews with top biblical scholars, archaeologists, and historians, we seek answers to profound questions: the identity of the sacrificed children, the reasons behind these rituals, their influence on world religions, and what they reveal about the divine and the moral codes of ancient followers.
