Leviticus 22:32

Leviticus 22:32. Neither shall ye profane my holy name, &c.— "An attentive observation of the law," says Selden, "was called by the Hebrews, sanctification of the divine name; and the doing any thing contrary to the law, profanation of that name."

REFLECTIONS.—(1.) Our Lord Jesus was thus a lamb without spot or blemish; and when examined, no fault was found in him. (2.) It is but mockery, instead of service, to appear before God with blind devotion and lame formality: unless our souls are engaged, and our hearts given up to him, the rest is no better than abomination.
