Many other heathens had the same thought and the same word; the old Greeks and Romans, for instance, who many thousand years ago spoke the same tongue as we did then, called him Zeus or Deus Pater; Jupiter; the heavenly Father, Father of gods and men; using the same word as our Tuisco, a little altered.

And there were ioyned vnto him all the sonnes of Istrus, and Mesa, with their brethren, fro the mounteyne of Adula to Mesemberia pontica.
Tuesday to the god Tuisco. Wednesday to the god Woden. Thursday to the god Thor, and so on.
So they named him after the heaven, Tuith, Tuisco, Divisco The God who lives in the clear heaven; and after him Tuesday is called: the day of Tuisco, the heavenly Father.

The religious expression of this is to be found in the legend which represents the three great divisions of the nation as descended alike from the god Mannus, son of the earth-born Tuisco; hymns were sung to the latter as the father of the German race. It was by hymns that this people remembered things which were important. The Early German Gods.
