'Sacred' in the Bible

For the Israelites must live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, and without ephod or household idols.

Israel is a lush vine;it yields fruit for itself.The more his fruit increased,the more he increased the altars.The better his land produced,the better they made the sacred pillars.

Their hearts are devious;now they must bear their guilt.The Lord will break down their altarsand demolish their sacred pillars.
