The Trinity term

The Trinity term refers to a period, typically in the spring, associated with the observance of the Christian religious holiday, Trinity Sunday. Named after the Christian doctrine of the Trinity—which describes God as three persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) in one divine essence—the term historically signified a time of reflection on this core belief. It is used mainly in academic or ecclesiastical contexts to denote a specific academic term or period aligned with this season, emphasizing the spiritual and theological significance of the Trinity within Christian tradition.
