SACRED vs NUMINOUS: OTHER WORD TYPES
- Synonyms Sacred, Holy. Holy is stronger and more absolute than any word of cognate meaning. That which is sacred may derive its sanction from man; that which is holy has its sanctity directly from God or as connected with him. Hence we speak of the Holy Bible, and the sacred writings of the Hindus. He who is holy is absolutely or essentially free from sin; sacred is not a word of personal character. The opposite of holy is sinful or wicked; that of sacred is secular, profane, or common.
- Not amenable to punishment; enjoying immunity: as, the king's person is sacred.
- Hence To be kept inviolate; not to be violated, profaned, or made common; inviolate.
