Devotion to the Holy Name is based on the commandment of Christ, that we should pray in His Name, and also on the second precept of the Decalogue which obliges us to honor the Name of God. The purposes, therefore, of this devotion are to beget honor and respect for God’s Name, and to prevent and make reparation for improper language.
