2 Tawarikh 28:3

[29:24]  ¹ tn Heb “said.”

[28:3]  ² sn This may refer to child sacrifice, though some interpret it as a less drastic cultic practice (NEB “burnt his sons in the fire”; NASB “burned his sons in the fire”; NIV “sacrificed his sons in the fire”; NRSV “made his sons pass through fire”). For discussion see M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 266-67.

[28:3]  ³ tn Heb “like the abominable practices of the nations.”
