Faith
Emunah (root א-מ-ן, same as ‘amen’) is generally understood in Jewish usage as faithfulness demonstrated through observance of mitzvot - praxis-oriented, not primarily propositional. Must be anchored as personal trust in Messiah’s finished work, not implicitly bundled with continued Torah-observance as its necessary expression.
