Leviticus 18:21
21“‘Do not give any of your children to be sacrificedOr to be passed through the fire to Molech, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the LORD.

This admonition not to sacrifice your children to a pagan god might seem out of place, given that the verses around it are all about not committing adultery. But there is actually a very good reason. God is actually comparing the horror of burning your own child alive to committing adultery, showing us that it is just as detestable in His sight.
