    ti-nahti is coptic and it means = I believe
    tennahti is coptic and it mean = we believe.
    pistevomen is greek and it means = we believe.

    How come people add "Alethos" before "pictevomen" when I don't think "Alethos" is written in the Kholagy?

    Dear Unworthy1
    It's written in kholagies translated to Arabic. I can't figure out how or why it was missed from English translated kholagies!!!

    alithos is NOT written in the old muharraq book which is strongly recommended source for old kholagy parts now. the southern diocese english book doesn't have it. i believe the older english kholagy has it but that just reflects the oral tradition of saying it (HICS).

    So some books have it and some don't. . .

    What does "Alethos" mean?

    alithos, if i am not mistaken, means 'truly'
    i personally would go with not having in books but i would also chant it in the response.....or if ever will do a book that has that part, i would add it in ().

    Alitos is not written in the kolagy but was recorded by the HICS in 1971.
