'Sacred' in the Bible

On the eighth day they held a sacred assembly, for the dedication of the altar lasted seven days and the festival seven days.

He removed the pagan altars and the high places. He shattered their sacred pillars and chopped down their Asherah poles.

For the sons of that wicked Athaliah broke into the Lord’s temple and even used the sacred things of the Lord’s temple for the Baals.”

When all this was completed, all Israel who had attended went out to the cities of Judah and broke up the sacred pillars, chopped down the Asherah poles, and tore down the high places and altars throughout Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, to the last one. Then all the Israelites returned to their cities, each to his own possession.
