"Holiness is a concept, a virtue that is inside a person or a thing. It is because of this virtue that he is called or referred to as holy. Thus, you consider a saint as holy, but he is not sacred to you. However, there are things that are both holy and sacred such as the holy bible. Sacred is a word used to distinguish worldly things and concepts from those that are godly or in some way connected with god. In general, holy is more of an abstract concept whereas concrete objects are considered sacred." 引自谷歌。 Holy多是抽象的概念,而sacred一般用来描述具体对象。

几乎没有什么区别,除了holy还可以作名词外,后者只能是形容词但有一些固定搭配,特别是在西方宗教中的一些物品叫法,更多的是用前者holycard,holycup.....sacred:指由于是献给上帝或神的事物,因而是神圣的,不容亵渎;也指被普遍视为神圣不可侵犯的东西。holy可与sacred换用,但holy侧重于内含一种神圣的本质,使之值得崇拜,通常具有传统、世袭或固有的性质。
