(קָדִשׁ, in Piel; ἀγνιάζω, to render sacred, set apart, consecrate (Exodus 28:38; Exodus 39:1; Leviticus 22:2; Numbers 5:10). The English word is from the Saxon, and is properly to make holy; hence hallowed persons, things, places, rites, etc.; hence also the name, power, dignity of God is hallowed, that is, reverenced as holy (Matthew 6:9). (See HOLY).
