Cody's Eye Symbolism lesson of the night- Pillar of Truth-Match.
The expression that serves as our title, the pillar and ground of the truth, I Timothy 3: 15, is indicative of great strength, noble cause, and serious responsibility. The Greek word for "pillar" is stulos.
What does the pillar symbolize?
The pillar is the bridge between HEAVEN and EARTH, the vertical axis which both unites and divides these two realms. It is closely connected to the symbolism of the TREE; it also represents stability, and a broken pillar represents death and mortality.
What does the truth represent?
Truth or verity is the property of being in accord with fact or reality. In everyday language, truth is typically ascribed to things that aim to represent reality or otherwise correspond to it, such as beliefs, propositions, and declarative sentences. Truth is usually held to be the opposite of false statement.
