| Any help you can offer in clarifying the connection or distinction between the concepts of dulia and hyperdulia would be appreciated. |
| The distinction of what is called dulia and latria was invented for the very purpose of permitting divine honours to be paid to angels and dead men with apparent impunity. |
| It is common and certain doctrine that Mary is entitled to a special kind of dulia known as hyperdulia, which is due to her considered as Mother of God. |
| As its Greek roots suggest, hyperdulia is above and beyond the dulia. |
| The reply of our Lord to the tempter seems purposely framed so as to include both latria and dulia. |
| Such adjuncts therefore are not foreign to those subordinate acts of worship or honour which are technically known as dulia. |
