sanctify

Atonement cleanses the sinner; sanctification sets apart the cleansed for God's use. In Leviticus, atonement and sanctification are sequential movements in the same priestly logic.

Both derive from the Hebrew root q-d-sh (to be set apart) — the verb qiddesh (to sanctify) and the noun miqdash (sanctuary/holy place) are the same root concept in different aspects.

Hebrew qiddush (consecration) and qiddesh (to sanctify) derive from the same root q-d-sh — consecration is the completed act; sanctify is the ongoing process. Both describe the same movement toward holiness.
