That she is not named in the Bible does not mean she is not there. Tradition has identified her with the woman with the haemorrhage in Luke 8.43. |
|||
Veronica '''does not''' appear in any Bible by that name or any other that can identify her, nor are her actions recorded in any of the books of the Bible. She may have been a real person, but there is no evidence to back up her actions. Tradition is the only reason she is mentioned at all. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/50.248.180.9|50.248.180.9]] ([[User talk:50.248.180.9#top|talk]]) 13:42, 17 March 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

== Dubious Latin == |
|||
The form "Vero Icone" does not look like proper Latin to me. Unless I'm mistaken, it should be "vera icon" (icon is feminine according to [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/ptext?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.04.0059%3Aentry%3D%2321323 Lewis & Short]), as mentioned further down in the text. (This also makes the anagram work better, obviously.) |

:The link to your reference is dead. Try [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.04.0059%3Aentry%3Dicon this one]. |
|||
== Implausible etymology == |
|||
The ascription of 'vera icon' as the origin of the name Veronica is first encountered in [[Giraldus Cambrensis]] - not generally regarded as a reliable historical source! It is implausible on the following grounds: |
|||
The words are from two different languages - Latin and Greek. 'True image' in Latin would more normally be 'imago vera' (preserving usual Latin word order.) |
|||
Veronica is not a compound of the two words, but an anagram. |
|||
The Greek church gives her the name 'Berenike'. This name, of semitic origin, was already extant in the Near East - cf [[Berenice of Cilicia]], and is clearly not a compound any word relating to 'image'. Meanwhile the Latin names 'Veronicus' and 'Veronica' would have a plausible existence even before the Christian era as 'cognomina' of the sort formed from the name of a city. It is most likely that the Greek 'Berenike' which would originally have been received in Latin as 'Berenica' was subsequently assimilated to an extant Roman name. |

Yes. F.L.Cross 'Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church'. 'Vera eikon' is first found in Giraldus Cambrensis. How about you? Do not revert without checking this much more thoroughly. The 'vera icon' thing remains in the article as it stands. As I said, there is a problem of plausibility here - that firstly a Greek and a Latin word are brought together, and secondly that they are then made into an anagram (NOT a 'portmanteau'!) |
