Jtitle 哲學 No.73 (1981. 12) ,p.25- 47 JaLC DOIAbstract It is very often said that the word "personality" is derived from Latin "persona" meaning "mask"

put on by the actor at the ancient Roman theater. And most ethical theories have so farinterpreted personality in this way. I should like to assert in this paper that the word"personality" originates in Hebrew "panim" (face) in the Old Testament. Ancient Hebrews did notknow the philosophical concepts which ancient Greeks were very familiar with. In order todenote God, the Hebrew writers of the Old Testament used personified expression including themetaphor "the face of God." It means the presence of God; in other words, God's participation inIsrael's history. Several phrases had been made in order to express either God's grace towardIsrael or His judgment against Israel. They are also metaphorical expressions of the personalrelations between God and man. Those usages of "face" were succeeded by the Greek NewTestament through the medium of the Septuagint which is the translation of the Old Testamentfrom Hebrew into Greek. What is more, Martin Buber's personalistic interpretation of the OldTestament is one of modern philosophies emphasizing the meaning of the word "personality."
