From:

Blasphemy
In
the
sense
of
speaking
evil
of
God
this
word
is
found
in
Ps
.
74:18;
Isa
. 52:5;
Rom
. 2:24;
Rev
. 13:1, 6; 16:9, 11, 21.
It
denotes
also
any
kind
of
calumny
,
or
evil-speaking
,
or
abuse
(1
Kings
21:10;
Acts
13:45; 18:6,
etc
.).
Our
Lord
was
accused
of
blasphemy
when
he
claimed
to
be
the
Son
of
God
(
Matt
. 26:65;
comp
.
Matt
. 9:3;
Mark
2:7).
They
who
deny
his
Messiahship
blaspheme
Jesus
(
Luke
22:65;
John
10:36).
Blasphemy
against
the
Holy
Ghost
(
Matt
. 12:31, 32;
Mark
3:28,
29;
Luke
12:10)
is
regarded
by
some
as
a
continued
and
obstinate
rejection
of
the
gospel
,
and
hence
is
an
unpardonable
sin
,
simply
because
as
long
as
a
sinner
remains
in
unbelief
he
voluntarily
excludes
himself
from
pardon
.
Others
regard
the
expression
as
designating
the
sin
of
attributing
to
the
power
of
Satan
those
miracles
which
Christ
performed
,
or
generally
those
works
which
are
the
result
of
the
Spirit's
agency
.
