?What is faith? Have you ever tried to define it?
If we cannot explain what it is, can we claim to possess it?

In the dictionary, this word is associated with belief and hope, and while this is true in Hebrew as well, the meaning of the word emuna (אֶמוּנָה) is much more comprehensive.

The first thing we must understand is that the noun emuna comes from a verb. This verb is aman (אָמַן). Amán means to believe, but it also has several physical or practical implications, as we will see below.

“And he believed in Yehovah, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.”
- Genesis 15:6

The verb “believed” (הֶאֱמִן) here comes from the verb amán (אָמַן). And in the context of the story of Abraham, we see how he was a man of action and received this visitation from Yehovah after he had already left his homeland. His emuna led him to take action.

Emuna is related to truth:

“A faithful witness does not lie, but a false witness will utter lies.”
- Proverbs 14:5

“Open the gates, that the righteous nation which ?keeps the truth may enter in.”
- Isaiah 26:2
