Blasphemy:
in its technical English sense, signifies the speaking evil of God and in this sense it is found (Psalm 74:18; Isaiah 52:5; Romans 2:24 etc.). But according to its derivation it may mean any species of calumny and abuse: see 1 Kings 21:10; Acts 18:6; Jude 1:9; etc. Blasphemy was punished by stoning, which was inflicted on the son of Shelomith (Leviticus 24:11). On this charge both our Lord and St. Stephen were condemned to death by the Jews. The blasphemy against the Holy Ghost (Matthew 12:32; Mark 3:28) consisted in attributing to the power of Satan those unquestionable miracles which Jesus performed by "the finger of God" and the power of the Holy Spirit. It is plainly such a state of wilful, determined opposition to God and the Holy Spirit that no efforts will avail to lead to repentance. Among the Jews it was a sin against God answering to treason in our times.
