“And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense unto all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings unto other gods.”
Jeremiah 19:13 (KJV)
Commentary on Jeremiah 19:13
The houses of Jerusalem and the kings' palaces are 'defiled' because they burned incense to 'all the host of heaven' on their rooftops. Astral worship (worship of sun, moon, stars) violated the first commandment and the explicit warnings of Deuteronomy 4:19. Rooftop worship was public and flagrant. The defilement made these houses 'as the place of Tophet' - fit only for judgment.
