英文释义
名词 n.
-
A level of veneration higher than dulia but less than latria, properly given to the Virgin Mary only.
— By the thirteenth century, the growth of devotion to Mary, the Mother of God, in both East and West led John of Damascus's admirer Thomas Aquinas to formalize a further refinement: the concept of an exceptional sort of veneration, hyperdulia, offered only to the greatest of God's creations, Mary, the mother of Jesus.
