Isaiah 48:11 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 48:11
The repeated 'for mine own sake' emphasizes that God's ultimate motivation in all redemption is His own glory, not human benefit (though we do benefit). The rhetorical 'how should my name be polluted?' shows that God's holiness demands vindication of His reputation. This God-centeredness offends human pride but establishes true worship - God is end, not means.
