The prophet, here appealing for the church's safety, makes use of an additional argument, namely, God's own honour and glory. For who is blasphemed, but the Lord? Whose name is abused, but the Lord's? Reader, do not fail to remark the strength of this plea. Moses and Joshua both had recourse to this, as their last and chief resource. See two or three beautiful examples; Exodus 32:11-13; Numbers 14:11-21; Joshua 7:6-9. And what is the whole glorious design of redemption by the Lord Jesus, but for the glory of Jehovah? Ezekiel 36:32; Revelation 5:9.
