See, Reader, and mark the blessed cause, for it runs through the whole Bible; the Lord's motives in redemption-work. The glory of Jehovah is the first, and last, and ultimate design of Jehovah, in all his dispensations, both in providence and grace; in creation and redemption. So saith that song John heard from heaven. Revelation 4:11. Jesus had an eye to his people in redemption: but the zeal to his Father's glory was the great predisposing cause of all. Psalms 69:9.

Ezekiel 36:21-23
21 But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.
22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
