10a	Isa. 30: 33. 33 For ^aTophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it. Jer. 7: 31 (31-33). 31 And they have built the high places of ^aTophet, which is in the valley of the son of ^bHinnom, to ^cburn their sons and their daughters in the ^dfire; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart. Jer. 19: 6 (6, 12). 6 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that this place shall no more be called ^aTophet, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter.
b	Josh. 18: 16. 16 And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of ^aHinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of ^bHinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and descended to En-rogel,
c	Lev. 18: 21. 21 And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the ^afire to ^bMolech, neither shalt thou ^cprofane the ^dname of thy God: I am the Lord.
