What do we mean, when we use the words, “Hallowed Be Thy Name?” God has many names — so what are we expressing when we ask that God’s name be hallowed? What is meant by “hallowed”? In other places, the Greek and Hebrew words are translated as “sanctified,” or “be holy.” We are to sanctify or treat as holy the things that God has made holy; if we profane them, we profane God. We hallow God, when we live holy lives; and we profane God, and give others occasion to scoff and blaspheme, when we break His Word, thereby profaning God.
