6. From these considerations it is evident that faith and truth are one. This also is the reason that the ancients, who from affection thought about truths much more than the men of our time, instead of faith used the word truth. For the same reason in the Hebrew language truth and faith are expressed by the same word, namely, Amuna or Amen.
