This occurs in 2 Kings 3:25-27, where it seems that either the gods of Moab defeated the Israelites and Judahites, or the Hebrew people simply had such faith in the efficacy of human sacrifice that they believed their continued efforts would be in vain and so abandoned their attack.King Jehoram of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah, with the assistance of the prophet Elisha, fought the Moabites and besieged the Moab city of Kir-haraseth. They had the upper hand until the Moabite king sacrificed his eldest son on the wall of the city, whereupon the Israelites and Judahites abandoned the siege.AnswerNo king in the Bible sacrificed his son to God since it was prohibited by law and abhorrent to God.
