BAAL AND ASTAROTH
“And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.” (Judges 2:13)
Here we have the mention of Baal and Ashtaroth together, which is the worship of a sun god and a moon goddess through sex and fertility rites (Hence: rabbits and eggs for Easter, which is from Ishtar and Ashtaroth).
The illegitimate children that were born from this religion were often offered in sacrifice, called “passing through the fire” in the Bible (Lev. 18:21; Deu. 18:10; II Kgs. 17:17, etc.)
The names of these false gods change from one nation to the next and all through the centuries (Isis, Osiris, Nimrod, Semaramis, Baal, Diana, Molech, Aphrodite, Ishtar, Queen of Heaven, Mary, Mother Nature, etc), but it’s all the same pagan idolatry. The definitive work on the subject is The Two Babylons by Hislop.
