Leviticus 20:3 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

I will set my face against that man Deal with him as an enemy, and make him a monument of my justice. To defile my sanctuary Because the sanctuary was defiled by gross abominations committed in that city or land where God's sanctuary was: or because by these actions they declared to all men that they esteemed the sanctuary and service of God abominable and vile, by preferring such odious idolatry before it. And to profane my name Partly by despising it themselves, partly by disgracing it to others, and giving them occasion to blaspheme it, and to abhor the true religion.

Leviticus 20:3

3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
