I like the etymology, it usually provides a good reference for imagery, plus an easy way for me to recall meaning.

With church documents, I am often going to the dictionary, and I always want to know the Latin root, for the purpose of understanding.

People forget that the language of the Church is and understanding its theology and philosophy can take a little work.
