Leviticus 22:32 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 22:32

Neither shall ye profane my holy name
By transgressing the laws of God, particularly by offering blemished sacrifices, or before the proper tithe; or by slaying the dam and its young on one day; for, as Aben Ezra observes, this is said to the sons of Aaron: but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel;
by his priests among them, and by themselves, conforming to all the precepts, and particularly the last mentioned, which respects them, and their eating up the peace offerings the same day: I [am] the Lord which hallowed you;
had separated them from all other people, and had given them holy laws to walk by, through the observance of which they would be at least externally holy.

Leviticus 22:32 In-Context

30 It must be eaten on the same day it is offered; leave none of it till morning; I am ADONAI.
31 "You are to keep my mitzvot and obey them; I am ADONAI.
32 You are not to profane my holy name; on the contrary, I am to be regarded as holy among the people of Isra'el; I am ADONAI, who makes you holy,
33 who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God; I am ADONAI."
