Moloch is an ancient Hebrew name for a demon that demanded human sacrifice. It may also refer to a figure in Jewish mysticism who represents the desires of the ego or self-interest. In modern times, moloch has been used as a metaphor for cruel or greedy employers, politicians, or others who demand excessive amounts of labor from their employees.
