sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: God hallowed the seventh day, making Shabbat holy. God also says He will be hallowed among Israel. In the Prophets and Writings the "hallowed things" are the Temple gifts kept in treasuries, and "hallowed flesh" is sacrificial meat; Lamentations calls the holy stones of the Temple "hallowed." Interpretation: The Sabbath is read as the first holy thing in the world, made holy by God before people did anything. Jeremiah is read as scolding Israel for thinking that holy sacrifices could protect them while they sinned. In the primary lessons: Pupils meet it in the Lord's Prayer, said in many schools and churches: «Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name» — may God's name be treated as holy. In sport and history, «hallowed ground» is a place with a special, respected past, like a famous stadium or a war cemetery. Related: Halloween (the eve of All Hallows, All Saints' Day).
