Back to passage

Abraham said, "Because I thought, 'Surely the fear of God is not in this place. They will kill me for my wife's sake.'

Take no interest from him or profit, but fear your God; that your brother may live among you.

However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to Yahweh's enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you shall surely die."

But the former governors who were before me were supported by the people, and took bread and wine from them, besides forty shekels of silver; yes, even their servants ruled over the people: but I didn't do so, because of the fear of God.

Also to punish the righteous is not good, nor to flog officials for their integrity.

It isn't good to have zeal without knowledge; nor being hasty with one's feet and missing the way.

When they came to the nations, where they went, they profaned my holy name; in that men said of them, These are the people of Yahweh, and are gone forth out of his land.

For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," just as it is written.

Titus 2:5 TSK

to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God's word may not be blasphemed.
