'To edify' means 'to improve people's minds or characters by teaching them about something'. Originally it meant 'construct a building', hence to 'build up' morally.
edification = a building up, especially in a moral or spiritual sense
= improvement
= education
= enlightenment
Antonyms:
destruction, worsening, deterioration
