Bible Comments

Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter: for they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place.

Valley of slaughter - so named because of the great slaughter of the Jews about to take place at Jerusalem; a just retribution of their sin in slaying their children to Moloch in Tophet.

No place - no room, namely, to bury in, so many shall be those slain by the Chaldeans (Jeremiah 19:11; Ezekiel 6:5).
