Phrase of Scripture   Correlating Passages TSK Help

they profaned   The Jews, when thus scattered, appeared to them an abject and wretched company of people. They were recognized as the worshippers of Jehovah wherever they went; but they were looked upon as a viler and more worthless race than any of the idolaters among whom they were driven. Many would ascribe their wickedness to the tendency of their religion, which they abhorred, and not to their having acted inconsistently with it; and regard their miseries, not as the punishment of their sins, but as proofs of God's inability to protect them. This profanation of his holy name, Jehovah was determined to wipe away, by shewing mercy unto them. Isa 52:5; Rom 2:24
These   Exd 32:11-13; Num 14:15,16; Jos 7:9; 2Ki 18:30,35; 2Ki 19:10-12; Jer 33:24; Dan 3:15
