What does the Bible mean when it talks about truth? Is truth simply knowing the right facts, or is it something deeper?
In this episode of Word Nerd, Lily explores the Hebrew word emet (אמת)—a word often translated as truth, but one that also carries the ideas of faithfulness, reliability, trustworthiness, and steadfastness. Through biblical examples and word study, she examines how emet describes something firm and dependable rather than merely intellectually correct.
Along the way, Lily looks at how emet is used throughout Scripture, its connection to faithfulness and trust, and why biblical truth is meant to shape the way we live. Rather than treating truth as information to collect, the Bible presents truth as something that calls for a response.
If you’ve ever wondered why the biblical concept of truth feels deeper than our modern use of the word, or if you’re interested in Hebrew word studies and the original languages of Scripture, this episode is for you.
Trust what’s true. Let it shape you
