| Sumario: | In the ongoing debate about the meaning of the term mṓlek in the Bible, G.

This article critiques his presentation, argumentation, and conclusions, and suggests that mlk had a more complex history of use than has been previously recognized, which may have embraced both meanings currently espoused, that of child sacrifice and that of deity name/epithet. |
