Christ
英 [kraɪst]
助記提示
1. Christ 譯為“基督”是音譯，按照廣東話粵語而翻譯的，最早翻譯的為“ 基利斯督 ”，後來簡稱為“基督”。
2. 因為利瑪竇最早是到了澳門，並且在廣東肇慶最早開始的宣教工作，所以他的很多發音都帶有粵語色彩。利瑪竇不是英國人，作為一位耶穌會的傳教士，他按照拉丁文的“Christos”，發音更接近希臘文的“Χριστοs”，用今天的漢語拚音來拚寫應該是接近於“Hristos”（“赫利斯多斯”）。
3. 耶穌（Jesus）是名字，基督（Christ）是職位，好比某某主席、某某書記、某某經理、某某老師一樣，前麵的某某是名字，後麵的是其所任職位。現在有好多自稱為基督的，其實他們不是基督，基督隻有一位，就是耶穌，除他以外，再沒有基督。所以經常看到“耶穌”被合在一起稱為“耶穌基督”。

英文詞源
- Christ (n.)
- title given to Jesus of Nazareth, Old English crist (by 830, perhaps 675), from Latin Christus, from Greek khristos "the anointed" (translation of Hebrew mashiah; see messiah), noun use of verbal adjective of khriein "to rub, anoint" (see chrism). The Latin term drove out Old English Hæland "healer, savior," as the preferred descriptive term for Jesus.
A title, treated as a proper name in Old English, but not regularly capitalized until 17c. Pronunciation with long -i- is result of Irish missionary work in England, 7c.-8c. The ch- form, regular since c. 1500 in English, was rare before. Capitalization of the word begins 14c. but is not fixed until 17c. The 17c. mystical sect of the Familists edged it toward a verb with Christed "made one with Christ."
