What is an “abomination” to the LORD? What does the LORD “abhor“...”detest“...“despise“...or “loathe”?
All these are reasonable translations of the Hebrew words “to'ab” (the verb) or “tow'ebah” (the noun).
And we know — don’t we? — what such things are. We’ve been reading the Bible for some time; and it is plain. The LORD “abhors” or “abominates” the vilest, most sickening, and most disgusting of sins: the ones we can hardly mention, or surely don’t want to think about.
