However, the book Molech — A God of Human Sacrifice in the Old Testament, by John Day, observes: “There is evidence in classical and Punic [Carthaginian] sources, as well as archaeological evidence, for the existence of human sacrifice... in the Canaanite world, and so there is no reason to doubt the Old Testament allusions [to human sacrifice]. ”
Ent John Day raamatus „Moolok — inimohvrite jumal Vanas Testamendis ” („ Molech — A God of Human Sacrifice in the Old Testament ”) märgitakse: „On klassikaliste ja Puunia [Kartaago] allikate tõendeid, samuti arheoloogilisi tõendeid, et.. kaananlaste maailmas toodi inimohvreid, ja seega pole mingit põhjust kahelda Vana Testamendi vihjetes [inimohvrite kohta]. ”
