Logoi

This article or section needs to be brought in conformity to standard English, possibly due to having been translated from another language or being written by someone for whom English is not a primary language. You can help OrthodoxWiki by editing it.


Logical or λογικόσ as intelligent which is closely tied to the Logos, reason or logic of existence. To simply translate the word as logical is however inadequate. This is due to the term having a closer meaning to the aptitude or intellect and qualifies the possessor of spiritual knowledge. When used in conjunction with the soul or psyche the word then translates as endowed with intelligence. Intelligence itself as the ruling principle of the soul.
