'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

Hello Rrooxx, As synonyms you could also use: uplifting or elevation.
