Explanation:
Holy Trinity is Translated ( الثالوث القدوس )not الأقدس أو المقدس ..

أود أن أضيف معلومة ههنا : "الثالوث القدوس" تشير إلى الثلاثة أقانيم (أقنوم = صفة ذاتية خاصة بالله) ..

و فى المسيحية الأقانيم الثلاثة هى : الآب (و ليس الأب) و الابن و الروح القدس "إله واحد" و لذلك لا نستخدم : 1) لفظة الأقدس : على وزن أفعل تفضيل إذ أن اسم التفضيل يستخدم للدلالة على أن شيئين اشتركا فى صفة ، و زاد أحدهما على الآخر فى هذه الصفة .. و عليه حاشا لنا أن نقارن قداسة الله بقداسة أى شىء آخر .. 2) لفظة المقدس : اسم مفعول للدلالة على ما وقع عليه الفعل ، و هو هنا (الثالوث) و حاشا لنا أن نقول أنا الله يستمد قداسته من شىء أو شخص يقدسه ..
لذلك تستخدم الكنيسة لفظة القدوس : لأن بها المعنى المطلق للقداسة غير
المقارنة و غير المستمدة من شىء أو شخص ..
