Martin Heidegger – Being and Time – BT 256

By its very meaning, this evasive concealment in the face of death can not be authentically 'certain' of death, and yet it is certain of it. What are we to say about the 'certainty of death' ?
To be certain of an entity means to hold it for true as something true. But “truth” signifies the uncoverdness of some entity, and all uncoveredness is grounded ontologically in the most primordial truth, the disclosedness of Dasein. As an entity which is both disclosed and disclosing, and one which uncovers, Dasein is essentially 'in the truth'. But certainty is grounded in the truth, or belongs to it equiprimordially. The expression 'certainty', like the term 'truth', has a double signification. Primordially “truth” means the same as “Being-disclosive”, as a way in which Dasein behaves. From this comes the derivative signification: “the uncoverdness of entities”. Correspondingly, “certainty”, in its primordial significations, is tantamount to “Being-certain”, as a kind of Being which belongs to Dasein. However, in a derivative signification, any entity of which Dasein can be certain will also get called something 'certain'.
