Truth definition
Truth in our ideas and beliefs means the same thing that it means in science. It means, [the the pragmatists] say, nothing but this, that ideas (which themselves are but parts of our experience) become true just in so far as they help us to get into satisfactory relation with other parts of our experience, to summarize them and get about among them by conceptual short‐cuts instead of following the interminable succession of particular phenomena. (1907, 512; italics in original)
Truth. All truth comes from God, and we are to speak the truth as well as live in the truth (Numbers 23:19, ▇▇▇▇ 14:6; 17:17, ▇▇▇▇▇ 1:2, 2 Corinthians 1:20).

Truth the code outlines the means of exonerating the next highest members of society. This law, directed specifically at the priests and rulers of monastic communities, calls for the use of soþe, ‘by truth,’ rather than the oaths required for all subsequent individuals. The law reads: Preost hine clænsie sylfæs soþe, in his halgum hrægle ætforan wiofode ðus cweþende “Veritatem dico in Christo, non mentior.” Swylce deacon hine clænsie,177 ‘The priest should clear himself by his own truth, in his holy garments before the altar saying this: “I speak the truth in Christ, and do not deceive.” Likewise, a deacon should clear himself [of an accusation].’ While a ritualized statement in Latin in a prescribed location is still required of the speaker, the priests and monastic leaders are expressly allowed to avoid labeling their declarations as oaths. Every other person listed in Wihtræd’s collection of attestations is required to proclaim his innocence by means of an oath. The use of soþ for the religious community is, therefore, a deliberate and exclusive arrangement designed to highlight the special status of the clergy in England.

Truth means to her, it might be necessary, but far from adequate, to establish shared means of reference. The fact that all humans live in the same physical world does not mean that the world they believe in is identical. But how, then, can one ever be sure that all share a translatable concept of truth? Surely, a translation of truth might be justifiable in some concrete instance, but such juncture should not lead too quickly into believing that t1 (‘truth’ in the foreign language) and t2 (‘truth’ in the interpreter’s language) entail the same semantic connotations or play the same role in the overall language game. [1] The suggestion of this article stands somewhat in contrast to the frequently appraised truth- semantics launched by Donald Davidson. [2] Instead of holding ‘belief’ and ‘truth’ to constitute the anchor of meaning, it is argued that meaning is a condition of possibility for something to be true. Accordingly, interpretation and translation of meaning should proceed in an open-ended manner, which steer between the Scylla of subjectivist internalism and the Charybdis of objectivist externalism. The ally in this enterprise is Wittgenstein, yet
Truth for Heidegger means ‘unconcealment’ (the literal meaning of the ancient Greek word for truth,
