Origin and Evolution of all seeing

First Known Use: 1250 year
Language of Origin: Middle English
Story behind the word: The term 'all seeing' originated from the concept of divine omniscience, referring to a deity or supernatural being that possesses complete knowledge and awareness of all things.
Evolution of the word: Over time, the term 'all seeing' has come to be used more metaphorically to describe someone or something that is highly observant or perceptive, rather than just in a religious or supernatural context.
