It is historically associated with the worship of foreign gods, particularly through the practice of child sacrifice by fire, which was condemned by the prophets of Israel. The term is often used metaphorically to denote a place of judgment or destruction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, Topheth was a site where some Israelites engaged in the worship of the Canaanite god Molech, which involved the horrific practice of child sacrifice. This practice was strictly forbidden in the Mosaic Law (Leviticus 18:21; 20:2-5) and was a significant reason for the prophetic denunciations against Judah. The Valley of Hinnom, where Topheth was located, later became associated with Gehenna, a term used in the New Testament to describe a place of final judgment.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/8610.htm">taphas</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a place of burning, probably the same as <a href="/hebrew/8612.htm">Topheth</a><br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Topheth (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">תָּפְתֶּה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> (si vera lectio) id.; — as a place of burning, in figure of <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">י</font>s judgement on Assyria <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/30-33.htm">Isaiah 30:33</a> (Klo Che Buhl Marti and others <font class="hebrew2">תֹּפֶת</font>, joining <font class="hebrew2">ה</font> to following as interrogative). <p><font class="hebrew2">תָּקְהַת</font> Qr, <font class="hebrew2">תוקהת</font> Kt, see <font class="hebrew2">תִּקְוָה</font>.<p>I, II, III. <font class="hebrew2">תִּקְוָה</font> see [I. <font class="hebrew2">קוה</font>]. <font class="hebrew2">תְּקוּמָה</font> see <font class="hebrew2">קוּם</font>. <p>[<font class="hebrew2">תְּקוֺמֵם</font>], <font class="hebrew2">מֶיךָ</font>-.
