Holy Is His Name
Nov-Dec '22

Catholics are taught to prize holiness—but what is holiness all about? In Holy Is His Name: The Transforming Power of God’s Holiness in Scripture, Scott Hahn seeks to define the term in order to help us better understand our relationship with holiness. Tracing the meaning of holiness first through the Old Testament and then the New, Hahn masterfully reveals how God gradually transmits his holiness to his people—through creation, right worship, and more—and ultimately transforms them through the sharing of his divine life.
Scott Hahn has given us a biblical overview of the notion of holiness, tracing it from the seventh day of creation through the Exodus and the Temple to Christ, the Church, and her earthly and heavenly liturgy. Hahn shows how the Incarnation makes holiness applicable to persons in Christ and to our daily life as taken up in him. In classic Hahn fashion, it is extremely readable and personal as it brings the Bible and holiness into the heart of everyday life.
