EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the ancient world of Bible times, specifically focusing on the idol Adremelech. In this image, Adremelech is depicted in the form of a majestic peacock, symbolizing power and beauty. However, behind this facade lies a dark and disturbing truth - Adremelech was the deity to which the idolatrous Sepharvites sacrificed their own children.
The biblical account in Second Kings 17:31 describes how these misguided worshippers would burn their innocent children in fire as an offering to Adremelech. This chilling practice sheds light on the extreme lengths people went to in order to appease their pagan gods.
Through this photo print, we are given a glimpse into a time when religion and superstition held immense power over society. The depiction of Adremelech serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of blind faith and fanaticism.
As we study this historical artifact, we are reminded of the complex tapestry of beliefs that have shaped human history. It prompts us to reflect on how far we have come in terms of religious tolerance and understanding since those ancient times.
