in religiöser und ethischer Hinsicht als vollkommen angesehener Mensch
In Christian belief, a saint is a person recognized as having an exceptional degree of holiness or closeness to God, and the term's meaning varies depending on the religious denomination and context. Saints matter because they are officially recognized and venerated through formal processes like canonization in the Catholic Church, and they are often depicted in Christian art with distinctive symbols like halos or palm branches.

In religiösen Vorstellungen ist ein Heiliger ein Mensch, der als einer Gottheit besonders nahestehend beziehungsweise als in religiöser und ethischer Hinsicht vorbildlich angesehen wird. Die Anerkennung von Heiligen kann religiösen oder politischen Autoritäten vorbehalten sein oder sich in der Akklamation und Verehrung durch das gläubige Volk vollziehen; eine wichtige Rolle kann dabei das Auftreten von als übernatürlich interpretierten Phänomenen (Wunder) im Zusammenhang mit den Heiligen spielen. Die darauf folgende – zumeist posthume – kultische Verehrung von Heiligen bezeichnet man als Heiligenverehrung.
