“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.” (Matthew 7:6) What does this mean? The Scriptures clearly identify who are dogs and who are referred to as swine. There are nine categories of human behaviors referred to as dogs and three categories referred to as swine. The teaching concludes with three reasons why you should not give that which is holy to dogs or pearls to swine.
