The LORD who Sanctifies is a name that states the truth that Yahweh (Jehovah) is a sanctifying God and only He can sanctify. Sanctification is the process of moving from the profane or common to the holy or set apart. The word is similar to the idea of spiritual cleansing. This name of God is related to names that speak of His holiness (qodesh) like Holy God, Holy One, and the Spirit of holiness.
The LORD who sanctifies in the Hebrew text of Ezekiel 37:28.
