5 Minute Torah - Re'eh - Erasing The Name

“Erase their names… but do not do so to the LORD” (Deut 12). Not license for icon-smashing—a warning about reverence. The sages forbid defacing the Divine Name (Y-H-V-H) or slapping it on throwaway stuff. Deeper still: we erase His Name by how we live. When our posts, deals, or jokes contradict Him, that’s chillul Hashem. The remedy? Kiddush Hashem—visible obedience that makes others glorify your Father (Matt 5:16). Are you amplifying the Name—or editing it out? Learn how to guard His Name in daily life.
