Profane (Adjective and Verb)

primarily, "permitted to be trodden, accessible" (from baino, "to go," whence belos, "a threshold"), hence, "unhallowed, profane" (opposite to hieros, "sacred"), is used of (a) persons, 1Ti 1:9, Heb 12:16; (b) things, 1Ti 4:7, 1Ti 6:20, 2Ti 2:16. "The natural antagonism between the profane and the holy or divine grew into a moral antagonism. ... Accordingly bebelos is that which lacks all relationship or affinity to God" (Cremer, who compares koinos, "common," in the sense of ritual uncleanness).

primarily, "to cross the threshold" (akin to A, which see), hence, "to profane, pollute," occurs in Mat 12:5, Act 24:6 (the latter as in Act 1:21-29, cp. DEFILE, A, No. 1, PARTITION).
