Kiddush/Chilul Hashem – a fine line!!

Written by Benjamin A Rose

The Posuk seems to be repetitive “do not desecrate my name and I will be holy”? The Posuk is issuing a special warning. The Posuk is addressing certain special situations where there is potential for both. Making a Minyan on airplane minyan has a lot of potential for people who have never seen a davening before to see it first hand and take part in a Holy activity but on the flip side it also has potential to be a chilul Hashem with people being inconsiderate to the people sitting in this seats closest to the Minyan. Therefore Hashem in this Posuk is telling us see the Posuk when you go to make a Kiddush Hashem make sure that you do not desecrate my name and then, only then I will be holy.
