To speak hurtfully, particularly against God. We understand
the seriousness of blasphemy when we read in the Bible that
the people of Israel were instructed to stone to death anyone
who was heard to blaspheme (see Leviticus 24:14-16).
Jesus was threatened with stoning for blasphemy because he
said that he was the Son of God (John 10:33), and it was on
this charge that he was finally crucified (Matthew 26:65).
Paul instructs Titus to "teach what is in accord with
sound doctrine", and to instruct the brothers and sisters
to behave sensibly and reverently, "so that no one will
malign [KJV: "blaspheme"] the word of God."
(Titus 2:1-5).
