Emunah comes from a root meaning to be firm or steady (the same root behind “Amen”). It describes solidness you can lean on — supremely God’s own faithfulness, but also the steadfast trust of those who rely on him.

Habakkuk’s words “the righteous shall live by his faith(fulness)” become a cornerstone of the New Testament gospel. Biblical faith is not a fragile feeling but a firm trust answering to a faithful God.
