Edification refers to the act of instructing or improving someone intellectually, morally, or spiritually. The term is often associated with the process of providing insightful knowledge or education that builds character and strengthens one's understanding. It is derived from the Latin word 'aedificare,' which means to build, suggesting that edification builds up a person's inner self.
