theology[theology 词源字典]

theology: [14] Greek theós meant ‘god’. (Despite the more than passing similarity, it is not related to Latin deus ‘god’, source of English deity. Its precise ancestry has never been determined. It may go back ultimately to the Indo-European base *dhē- ‘put, place’, which also produced English do, but it could equally well have been borrowed from a non-Indo- European source.) From it was derived theologíā ‘study of divine things’, which passed into English via Latin theologia and Old French theologie, and also apothéōsis ‘deification’, from which English gets apotheosis [17].
