vocabulary简明 A divinity is a religious being, like a god or angel. It's also a word for the study of religion, which is studied at divinity school.
vocabulary扩展 If you know the word divine means holy or sacred, then you have a clue to the meaning of divinity, which can be a god or other religious being. Anything very holy is full of divinity. Divinity is also the subject of religion itself: divinity students are studying theology. But if you're not into religion, don't worry — you can still enjoy divinity, a type of white, creamy fudge made with egg whites that probably goes well with angel food cake.
