(from greek ὀρθοδοξία) –>
orthodoxia / “right opinion”
.
*”orthodoxy” is adherence to ‘correct’ or ‘accepted’ creeds, especially in ‘religion’*
.
(in the ‘christian sense’, the term means “conforming to the ‘christian faith’ as represented in the ‘creeds’ of the ‘early church'”)
(the first 7 ‘ecumenical councils’ were held between the years ‘325’ and ‘787’ with the aim of formalizing ‘accepted doctrines’)
.
(in some ‘english-speaking countries’, ‘jews’ who adhere to all the ‘traditions’ and ‘commandments’ of the ‘torah’ are often called ‘orthodox jews’, though the term “orthodox” historically first described ‘christian beliefs’)
