What is the word for truth and its meaning in Koine Greek?

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek

The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well

Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.

Is there a correlation between being a medium and mental health?

a couple of points:

as a result Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, was always depicted as a naked, unassuming and plain looking woman. The Latin equivalent was nuda Veritas. Truth has nothing to hide and didn’t need all the adornments of the other gods.

the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”

—— indirects on kuorans, irl and idols

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.
