Conversely, suppose and . The syntactic forcing relation says thatis dense below a forcing condition . This is a set in by definability of forcing and axiom schema of separation. The dense-below generic meeting lemma gives : augment by all incompatible forcing conditions with to obtain a globally dense ground-model set, and use to exclude the incompatible part.
Choose the witnessing . Since and , upward closure gives . The assumed equality truth lemma gives , while gives . Combining both directions,This completes the atomic membership truth lemma for forcing; no separate assumption of the membership truth lemma was made.
