Should the word divine be capitalized?

It depends on the context:

Capitalized:

* When referring to a specific deity: For example, "the Divine One," "the Divine Mother," or "Divine Providence" are all capitalized when referring to a specific deity.

* When used as part of a proper noun: For example, "Divine Comedy" is the title of a specific work by Dante Alighieri.

Not Capitalized:

* When used as an adjective: For example, "divine inspiration," "divine beauty," or "divine intervention" are all lowercase.

* When used as a noun in a general sense: For example, "the divine" or "divinity" are both lowercase.

In general:

* If you're unsure, it's always safest to err on the side of not capitalizing "divine."

* It's a good idea to consider the context and what meaning you're trying to convey.
