Bible Note: Greetings Jensen! May I address your first question? There isn't any doubt that many people in Israel became and used prositutes at the shrines and temples of other gods. But, there isn't any evidence that prostitutes were ever a part of the Temple Worship of Yahweh! It was always a part of Israel's falling away into idol worship. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
