For other uses, see
Divinity (disambiguation) and
Divine (disambiguation). Divinity and divine (sometimes 'the Divinity' or 'the Divine'), are broadly applied but loosely defined terms, used variously within different faiths and belief systems — and even by different individuals within a given faith — to refer to some transcendent or transcendental power, or its attributes or manifestations in the world. The root of the words is literally 'Godlike' (from the Latin 'Deus,' cf.
Dyaus, closely related to Greek '
Zeus' and
Deva in
Sanskrit), but the use varies significantly depending on the underlying conception of
god that is being invoked. This article outlines the major distinctions in the conventional use of the terms.
