Bible Verse

“فاني الحق اقول لكم: الى ان تزول السماء والارض لا يزول حرف واحد او نقطة واحدة من الناموس حتى يكون الكل.” (متى 5 :18) (النسخة الإنجليزية القياسية)

Meaning

ما زلنا نستخدم هذا التعبير للدلالة على شيء دقيق ولكنه مهم، على سبيل المثال. “ذرة الحق”

Origin and Application

اليونانية هي لغة العهد الجديد، واليوتا هو أصغرحرف من 24 حرفا في الأبجدية اليونانية. عندما قال يسوع ما ورد أعلاه للشعب على جبل التطويبات، كان يعني أنه حتى أصغر حرف من ناموس الله يجب الحفاظ عليها وتظل دون تغيير مع مرور الوقت.
