Crossword Genius

God is pure, men beg to be changed (7,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

supreme being

'god' is the definition.
('Supreme Being' can be a synonym of 'god')

'is pure men beg to be changed' is the wordplay.
'to be changed' indicates an anagram.
'is'+'pure'+'men'+'beg'='ispuremenbeg'
'ispuremenbeg' is an anagram of 'SUPREME BEING'.

(Other definitions for supreme being that I've seen before include "God" , "object of worship" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
