The primary purpose of this book is to show that God had morally sufficient reasons to destroy the pagan Canaanite nations. The book exposes the depth and extent of the hideous religious practices of Israel's pagan neighbors. The author examines evidence from the Bible, classical literature, Christian literature, history, archaeology, and epigraphy. Archaeologists uncovered the most damning evidence during excavations of high places and precincts of Baal worship in the Bible lands and nearby lands of the Ancient Near East, where cults of the Baals, Tanit, Ashtoreth, and other pagan deities practiced extensive and prolonged child sacrifice. After reading this book, the reader will have a substantial body of facts and reasons to contend for the accuracy of the Old Testament narratives about child sacrifice. The reader should also become convinced that if God had not destroyed the Canaanites, they would have continued their bloodthirsty practices, without letup.
