📚 Contexto Histórico
During the reign of King Josiah in ancient Judah, the nation was undergoing major religious reforms to eliminate pagan influences and restore faithful worship of God, as described in the books of Kings. Topheth, located in the Valley of Hinnom outside Jerusalem, was a site used for child sacrifices by fire to the Ammonite god Molech, a practice that had crept into Israelite culture despite being explicitly condemned in the Mosaic Law. Josiah defiled this area by making it unusable for such rituals, as part of his broader effort to cleanse the land of idolatry.
