单词 logos
释义

Logosn.

Brit. /ˈlɒɡɒs/, U.S. /ˈloʊˌɡoʊs/
Etymology: Ancient Greek λόγος word, speech, discourse, reason, < λογ-, ablaut-variant of λεγ- in λέγειν to say.
Theology and Philosophy.
A term used by Greek (esp. Hellenistic and Neo-Platonist) philosophers in certain metaphysical and theological applications developed from one or both of its ordinary senses ‘reason’ and ‘word’; also adopted in three passages of the Johannine writings of the New Testament (where the English versions render it by ‘Word’) as a designation of Jesus Christ; hence employed by Christian theologians, esp. those who were versed in Greek philosophy, as a title of the Second Person of the Trinity. By modern writers the Greek word is used untranslated in historical expositions of ancient philosophical speculation, and in discussions of the doctrine of the Trinity in its philosophical aspects.
