Word of the day: Faith

Believe began with the Old High German word gilobian, a relative of believe. Old English combined the prefix “be-” with the word “leof,” which originally meant “dear of love.” Leof became l?fan and lefan, meaning “to allow” or “to believe.” Towards the end of the 10th century, “belefan” became common usage. Beleven was the common Middle English usage before modern English evolved the word to mean “believe” in the late 16th century.

Understanding the idea of ​​faith is one of the oldest concepts understood by man. The word “pisteuo” comes from the times of ancient Greece and meant more than just “believe”, but above all “trust” and “trust”.

As a written text, the Faith is most commonly found in religious contexts, although it was also used in more general contexts from the mid to late 17th century, such as in the life and correspondence of Robert Southey in the early 19th century. The direct quote is: “There was a time when I believed in the power of man’s persuasion and had the madness to heal people.”
