what is the meaning of taking the lord's name in vain
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain It is a prohibition of blasphemy, specifically, the misuse or "taking in vain" of the name of the God of Israel, or using His name to commit evil. Exodus 20:7 reads:
Martin (name) Martin may either be a surname or given name.Martin is a common given and family name in many languages. It comes from the Latin name Martinus, which is a late derived form of the name of the Roman god Mars, the protective godhead of the Latins, and therefore the god of war.[1] The meaning is usually rendered in reference to the god as "of Mars", or "of war/warlike" ("martial") (compare Mark).
