CRITICAL: ക്രിസ്തു (Greek-derived, not Sanskrit-derived, reflecting the church’s Greek/Syriac transmission route) is the standard rendering. മിശിഹാ (mishiha, the Syriac-derived form used in Saint Thomas Christian liturgy) is a legitimate, ancient devotional alternative and may be used in liturgical or heritage-flavored material, but ക്രിസ്തു is the required term for this curriculum’s Bible-study register.
