Etymology of HOMILETE

The word "homilete" is not commonly found in English dictionaries. However, it is possible that you are referring to the word "homily", which has a different meaning.

The etymology of "homily" can be traced back to the Greek word "homilia", meaning "conversation" or "discourse". In ancient Greece, this term was used to refer to a conversation or discussion between two or more individuals. Over time, the meaning of the word evolved, and in Christian contexts, it began to be used to describe a sermon or a moral lesson delivered by a religious authority, such as a priest or bishop.

In the context of Christianity, the word "homily" was borrowed into Latin as "homilia" and subsequently into Old English as "homelie".
