Animals of the Bible (Mammals); In its physical characteristics, Palestine is unique, combining the most opposite physical features: for example, maritime and inland, mountain and plain, luxuriance and desert, cold and tropical, glacial and volcanic, and pastoral and arable. Some species of animals, formerly abundant, have disappeared: for example, the lion, wild bull, rhinoceros and bison. But 80 species of mammalia still exist there.

Apostle; is from the Greek, meaning “one who is sent forth, a delegate.” The word is used specially of “the twelve” (also of St. Paul, Rom. 1:1; 1 Cor. 9:1-2), but also in a wider sense, in which it is applied to such men as Matthias, James the Lord’s brother, Barnabas, Andronicus and Junias. The first qualification was “to have seen the Lord,” i.e., to be a witness of the Resurrection: the second, effectual missionary work (the signs of an apostle, 2 Cor. 12:12): but divine appointment and commission was also necessary (1 Cor. 12:28; Eph. 4:11).

Babylonia; Assyria; By Babylonia (the plain of Shiner, Gen. 10:10) is meant the great alluvial district of the lower Euphrates and Tigris, which extends from about 30° to 33° N. latitude. Owing probably to the great fertility of its soil, it was from prehistoric times a populous region, and it is now known to have been, with its great capital Babylon, the cradle of the civilization of western Asia. Assyria lies further to the north, to the east of the Tigris, from about 35°-37° N. latitude, above the confluence of the Tigris and its tributary, the river Zab. In Gen. 10:8, it is said that Nimrod the Babylonian built the Assyrian capital Nineveh, and modern researches do at least show that the civilization of the northern was derived from that of the southern district. The language of both these regions was Semitic: i.e., the races inhabiting them belonged to the same division of the human race as the Hebrews, but the monuments prove that Babylonia was at a remote period peopled by a non-Semitic race (the Sumerian), from which the cuneiform (wedge-shaped) writing of the extant monuments was derived.
During the nineteenth century a world of new knowledge was opened up by the excavation of ancient sites in Assyria and Babylonia, and by the almost miraculous decipherment of the vast stores of cuneiform documents there discovered. One single site, that of Nippur, excavated by the expedition of the University of Pennsylvania, yielded over 20,000 inscriptions and some 25,000 clay tablets.
The cuneiform literature, notably the tablets found in the library of Assur-bani-pal at Nineveh, throws a remarkable light on the early chapters of Genesis. The Babylonian mythology, we learn, contained an account of creation which, like that of the Hebrews, was divided into seven stages; it contained also the story of a deluge from which one family was saved by an ark, which they did not leave until a dove, a swallow, and a raven had been sent out to see whether they could find dry land. These Babylonian legends contain many rude polytheistic elements, and their moral tone contrasts markedly with that of the narratives in Genesis, but there can be little doubt that in them we have the sources from which the Hebrew cosmogony was derived. (For a detailed account see Sayce, Flesh Light From the Ancient Monuments, or Ryle, Early Narratives of Genesis.)
The oldest historical record by which the cuneiform literature illustrates the Old Testament history is that relating to the Babylonian king Chammu-rabi (perhaps about 1900 B.C.), who consolidated North and South Babylonia into one kingdom, by overcoming Eri-aku of Larsa. Some scholars identify these rulers with Amraphel of Shiner and Arioch of Ellasar (Gen. 14:1-16), who with Chedorlaomer of Elam and Tidal of Goiim were overthrown by Abraham on their return from an expedition against the cities of the Dead Sea, but the identification is not undisputed.
Assyria and Israel. The rise of the Assyrian Empire belongs to the fifteenth and following centuries B.C. Before that time Babylonia had been of relatively greater importance, but a remarkable series of tablets unearthed at Tell-el-Amarna in Egypt proves that by about 1430 B.C. Assyria had become so predominant that the Assyro-Babylonian language and writing were used even in Egypt as the medium of diplomatic correspondence.
In the twelfth century the sway of the Assyrian Tiglath-Pileser I extended as far west as the Phoenician coast: during the two following centuries internal weakness hindered the expansion of the Assyrian empire, and room was left for the growth of the Syrian kingdom and of that of Israel. But in the ninth century the Assyrians began to move southward: it is even possible that Omri, king of Israel, was made tributary to them. Certainly in 854 B.C. Shalmaneser II overthrew a coalition in which Syria and Israel took a part, and in 842 The same king took tribute from Jehu. From this time onward the policy of Assyria was a continual menace to Israel and. Judah, to whom the intermediate state of Syria proved an ineffectual bulwark. A revolt of Syria and Israel in 734 B.C. only led to the fall of Damascus, the deportation of the people of Gilead and Naphtali and the subjection of Judah to Assyria. Israel now began to look toward Egypt for help, but in vain. Samaria, besieged in 725 by Shalmaneser IV, was taken in 722 by Sargon, who also defeated an Egyptian army at Raphia in 720. The northern kingdom now disappeared from history, and the time of Judah was short. A revolt of the Babylonian Merodaeh-Baladan against Assyria (721-710) led Hezekiah to hope for deliverance from that quarter: the prophet Isaiah, however, succeeded in proving to the king the folly of attempting to revolt, and of seeking help from Egypt. But in 702 Hezekiah, with other Palestinian kings, refused to pay tribute: and when Sennacherib came south for vengeance, only a sudden catastrophe averted from Jerusalem a doom that seemed inevitable (701).
From this point the Assyrians begin to disappear from Biblical history. They conquered Egypt at the beginning of the seventh century, but soon lost it again: and at the end of that century the Medes and Babylonians overthrew their empire and destroyed Nineveh (607). The Syrian and Palestinian part of the Assyrian empire was not left to the Babylonians in undisputed possession. Pharaoh Necho of Egypt marched northward to claim it, but after having overcome the ineffectual resistance of Josiah at Megiddo was defeated at Carchemish by Nebuchadnezzar the Chaldæan (605). Josiah’s successor Jehoiakim wavered between the Chaldæans and the Egyptians: but in 597 Jerusalem was taken by Nebuchadnezzar: Jehoiakim’s son and successor Jehoiachin was carried off to Babylon with nearly the whole population of the city.
The new Babylonian empire was of short duration. Nebuchadnezzar had time to make Babylon one of the world’s wonders, but his successors achieved nothing: and in 538 Cyrus the Elamite, who had already overthrown the Medes and created an empire extending from the Caspian to the Persian Gulf, and from the Indus to the Mediterranean, entered Babylon as a conqueror, and the ancient Semitic empire gave place to that of Persia.

Bible, Facts Concerning; The first complete translation of the whole Bible into English was made by John Wycliffe, A.D. 1380-1382.
The first book ever printed was the Bible. The first Bible was printed between the years 1450 and 1455, at Mentz, by Guttenberg, the reputed inventor of printing. First New Testament printed in English was that of William Tyndale, A.D. 1525-1526. First Bible printed in English was Miles Coverdale’s, A.D. 1535.
The Old Testament was divided into chapters, as they now stand, by Cardinal Hugo, in the middle of the thirteenth century. These chapters were divided into verses, as we now have them, by Rabbi Nathan, and adopted by Robert Stephens, a French printer, in his edition of the Vulgate, in 1555, and transferred to the Authorized Version in 1611. The authorized version of the Bible was “set forth” in the year 1611.
The Revised Version of the English Bible was begun in England June 22, 1870, and in America October 4, 1872. The Revised New Testament was published in May, 1881; the Revised Old Testament in May, 1885.
Bible, Names of. 1. The Bible. “Biblos” was the name given to the inner bark of the papyrus, which was used as we now use writing-paper. Hence the papyrus when written upon came to be called Bibles, and from the word Biblion, a papyrus roll, comes our word Bible.
2. The Scriptures. The term simply means “The Writings” from the Latin scribers, to write.
3. The Law and The Law and the Prophets. The first name expresses the fact that the Bible contains God’s law to man, and the second that conjoined with the law were prophecies concerning times to come.
4. The Oracles. The word signifies things spoken, from the Latin, orare, to speak. Many things in the Bible have a “Thus saith the Lord” before them.
5. The Old and New Testaments. “Covenants” would better express the meaning. The two great divisions of the Bible contain God’s covenants with man.
6. God’s Word. So called because the Bible expresses God’s thought toward man.
7. The Canon. “Canon” means a rule or standard, and was in early Christian times applied to the Creed: it also meant a list, and the “canonical” books were those included in the recognized list of the Church’s books.

Christ, Date of the Birth of; It is very perplexing to many to find that Jesus was actually born four years before the time from which we count His birth. The simple reason is that no one calculated dates from the birth of Christ till centuries after He was born, and then Dionysius Exiguus, the monk who published the calculations in 526 A.D., made a mistake of four years. He placed the birth of Christ in the year of Rome (A.U.C.) 754. But Herod the Great, who slew the innocents of Bethlehem, died in April of the year of Rome 750, so that Christ must have been born several months before, or not later than the last of 749. The following table will help to make the matter clear:

It should be carefully noted that the numbers are ordinal, standing for first, second, etc.
Jesus was probably born at the very close of 5 B.C., which would be only four years before our era, for in a week after December 25, 5 B.C., it was January, 4 B.C.
Since it is impossible to rectify the dates in all books and records over the world, we simply apply the true dates to the life of Christ. He was five years old at the close of 1 A.D.

The Chronology of the Old Testament, as given in the Hebrew text, is represented with much accuracy by the marginal dates inserted in many editions of the Authorized English Version. These dates, reduced to system by Archbishop Ussher (Annales Veteris Testamenti, 1650), were first added to the English Bible by Bishop Lloyd, in the great edition of 1701.
The dates of Archbishop Ussher for this period are convenient for keeping the succession of events, but are not authoritative, as is agreed by the most conservative scholars. They are only one of several possible arrangements. Opinions of chronologers as to the “era of Creation” vary indeed by many centuries.
Ussher: 4004 B.C.
Hales (Sept.): 5411 B.C.
Jewish reckoning: 3760 B.C.
Alexandrian: 5503 B.C.
The question is, in fact, insoluble.

The two principal points on which there is a marked difference of opinion in relation to this period are: (1) the date of the Exodus and (2) the period over which the 430 years of Ex. 12:40 and Gal. 3:17 extends.
“The sojourning of the children of Israel, which they sojourned in Egypt, was 430 years.” The Sept. says “in Egypt and in the land of Canaan.” That is, the 430 years covers the whole period from Abraham’s entrance into Canaan to the Exodus, with which agrees Paul’s statement in Gal. 3:17, that from the covenant with (or call of) Abraham to the giving of the law (less than a year after the Exodus) was 430 years. In Gen. 15:13-14, it is said that they should be strangers in a strange land and be afflicted 400 years, nearly the same as Ex. 12:40. But, in very truth, the children of Israel were strangers in a strange land from the time that Abraham left his home for the promised land, and during that whole period of 430 years to the Exodus, they were nowhere rulers in the land.
Another reason in favor of this view is the difficulty of arranging any other system of chronology that will agree with the Biblical statements. In 1 Kings 6:1, it is stated that there were 480 years from the Exodus to the building of the Temple.
Starting with 1012 B.C. as the date of the Temple, which cannot be more than a few years out of the way (not more than 37 years according to the Eponym Canon), we obtain the following dates:
|
Abraham's
call
|
Jacob comes
into Egypt
|
Exodus
|
|
Temple
|
|
|
|
←−− 215 years −−→
|
←−− 215 years −−→
|
←−−−−−− 480 years −−−−−−→

|
|
1012
|
|
|
|
←−−−−−− 430 years −−−−−−→
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the 430 years were wholly spent in Egypt, the dating would be somewhat in this manner:
|
Abraham's
call
|
Jacob's descent
into Egypt
|
The bondage
|
Exodus
|
|
Temple
|
|
|
|
|

|

|

|
|

|
|
1012
|
|
It does not seem probable that the Israelites could have been so long in Egypt.
The present tendency of modern scholarship is to accept the late date of about 1300 B.C. for the Exodus, Rameses II as the Pharaoh of the oppression, and his son Menephtah (Merenptah) as the Pharaoh of the Exodus. Prof. Edward L. Curtis, in Hastings’ Bible Dictionary, says that “the Exodus can in no case be placed earlier than after the reign of Rameses II,” but adds in a note that since that statement was in type (1898), the new inscription of King Merenptah may require the assignment of the Exodus to an earlier period. And Prof. James Orr, in The Expositor for March 1897, argues stoutly for Thothmes and against Rameses.
It is impossible as yet to obtain certainty as to these early dates. Prof. Karl Marti, in Prof. Cheyne’s Encyclopedia Biblica, states that the earliest date certain beyond doubt in the Chronology of the Old Testament is the year 854 B.C., the date of the battle of Karkar, when Ahab was defeated by Shalmaneser II.

The exact chronology is very uncertain during this whole period. There is a wide difference of opinion among scholars, and the latest Bible dictionaries are unwilling to furnish even conjectural dates for most of the events. It seems, therefore, more helpful to the practical study of this period to give the dates in the margins of our Bibles, with the understanding that they are not authoritative, but give the general order and arrangement of events, and are as good as any that can be obtained.

The Period: 332 years (1427-1095)
|
The period of the judges: According to 1 Kings 6:1, there were 480 years between the Exodus and the commencement of the Temple in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign. Deducting from this the 40 years in the wilderness, 25 years of Joshua in Canaan, and 20 or 40 for Saul’s reign, 40 for David’s reign, and 3 years of Solomon’s reign, the period of the Judges would be 480 – 148 = 332 years (or 480 – 128 = 352 years) including the judgeships of Eli and Samuel up to the beginning of the reign of Saul. Of this about 280 years belong to the book of Judges. But if we add together the numbers given in Judges, they amount fo 410 years. For this and other reasons, it is entirely probable that “the oppressions and deliverances were not successive, but, in part, synchronous. They were, in fact, without exception, local struggles, and it is not only conceivable, but highly probable, that while one part of the land was enjoying security under its judge, other tribes were groaning under the foreign yoke” (Professor Moore). While several of the events were thus occurring at the same time in different parts of the land, in other cases the judges ruled practically over the whole. “The judges formed temporary heads in particular centers, or over particular groups of tribes—Barak in the north of Israel, Gideon in the center, Jephthah on the east of Jordan, Samson in the extreme southwest” (Professor Driver).

Note 1. The data for this period are the explicit chronological statements of Scripture, chiefly in the books of Kings and Chronicles. These assign to each reign its duration, and, after the division of the kingdom, give cross references to the times of the contemporary kings. The difficulty is that the lists of Israel and Judah do not agree. From the accession of Rehoboam to the sixth year of Hezekiah, the year of the destruction of Samaria, 255 years appear to be enumerated in the line of Judah, 241 in that of Israel. Some unknown fact would very possibly place the lists in harmony, and it is probable either (1) that there were in the Israelite line intervals of interregnum, so lengthening the period, or (2) that in the line of David there were times of associated sovereignty—father with son—the years in the annals being counted to both, so shortening the period. The former explanation is generally adopted in the older chronologies, but the latter appears the more satisfactory. There can be little doubt that Jotham, for instance, reigned for several years conjointly with his father Uzziah, who himself had previously been associated with Amaziah. It must be remembered that the Hebrews counted the unfinished years of a reign as complete. Thus a reign beginning a little before the end of one year and ending a little after the close of the next would be reckoned as three years, although hardly more than one. It follows that the same year will be often reckoned twice, as belonging to two different reigns.
Note 2. The dates given in the first column are those arranged by Archbishop Ussher and placed in the margins of our Bibles. They vary but from one to 40 years from the revised chronology, and whichever one we accept as correct, it is necessary to record the Ussher chronology for the sake of comparison. The dates in the revised chronology are those of Hastings’ Bible Dictionary, closely compared with those of Prof. George Adam Smith in his Book of the Twelve Prophets and Prof. Cheyne’s Encyclopedia Biblica.
Note 3. The most important extra-Biblical source of the chronology of this period is found in the Assyrian inscriptions. In 1862 Sir Henry Rawlinson discovered among the records of the stone libraries of Nineveh, on certain slabs, important historical documents, called the Assyrian Eponym Canon, by which we have the Assyrian record of chronology during a large part of the history of the kingdom of Israel.
The Eponyms were annually elected Assyrian officers, like the Roman consuls, and, like them, events were commonly dated by reference to their term of office. An accurate register was kept, with notes of important events and the succession of kings. These constitute the Canon. Its dates harmonize with the Bible in their order and general accuracy, and are exact as to 722 B.C. for the fall of Samaria and 586 B.C. for the destruction of Jerusalem, and are thus a marvelous confirmation of the Bible. But in details the Assyrian dates vary from those Ussher has derived from the Bible numbers, from seven to 40 years. The records are complete from 897 to 666 B.C., as well as for shorter periods before and after. There are several copies, all of which closely agree. They contain notices of the succession of kings and the most important events in their respective years. From the mention of the total eclipse in 763 is determined the date of all the remaining years. The persons and events in next to the last column of the preceding table are mentioned in the Eponym Canon.
Note 4. The dates in the last column of the above table are from the remarkable astronomical calculations of the astronomer Mahler, based on the Biblical notices of such possible events, taken from the Encyclopedia Biblica.

See 2 Kings 17:17; Ezek. 13:23.
Divination; Magic; Witchcraft; etc.; There are various Hebrew words by which these traffickers in superstitious rites were described. They may be classified thus:
(a) Diviners professed to see visions or to obtain information by gazing into a cup (Gen. 44:5), by means of arrows, by the inspection of livers of victims, and by teraphim, a kind of image (Ezek. 21:21). Compare the divination amongst the Midianites (Num. 22:7) and the Philistines (1 Sam. 6:2).
(b) Wizards, Witches or Sorcerers, literally knowing ones, thought-readers (Lev. 19:31; Deut. 18:11).
(c) Necromancers (Deut. 18:11), supposed to be possessed with familiar spirits, e. g., the witch of Endor, who was professedly a “medium” between the living and the dead.
(d) Soothsayers, Monthly Prognosticators, and Observers of Times were Astrologers, who would draw horoscopes and foretell events by examining the conjunctions and oppositions of the heavenly bodies (Isa. 2:6; 47:13, etc.).
(e) Magicians or “engravers” (Ex. 32:4) were perhaps originally a literary caste. Compare the case of the magi or wise men who came from the East to worship Christ.
(d) Enchanters were serpent charmers, and another class were probably conjurers, gifted with sleight of hand. Probably amongst their hidden arts there may be reckoned quickness of wit, the power of a strong will over a weak one, the possession of secret information, the strange gift called “clairvoyance” the modern hypnotism or “second sight” the use of drugs and mechanical devices.

Egypt, the Israelites in; the oppression and Exodus; It is strange that as yet no clear corroboration of the Biblical narrative from the age of Joseph to that of Moses has been afforded by the decipherment of Egyptian monuments. It is a generally-accepted conjecture that the career of Joseph belongs to the epoch of the Hyksos or Shepherd kings, a non-Egyptian dynasty who are said to have governed Egypt from about 2000-1600 B.C.; but beyond the fact that under non-Egyptian kings a foreigner might easily rise to eminence, there is no positive evidence to support this view. The Pharaoh of the oppression is generally identified with Rameses II (between 1300 and 1200 B.C.), and not without reason. The site of Pithom, one of the treasure-cities’ built by the Israelites for their oppressor, has been discovered. It was a brick-walled town with great store-chambers of brick, and inscriptions found on the spot spew that it was founded by Rameses II. The Exodus is then placed under Rameses II’s successor Menephtah (Merenptah). It is in an inscription of this monarch that the first clear allusion to the Israelites is found. This document records a general restoration of peace after a victory over Libyan invaders; and among the enemies whose downfall is recalled, the name Ysiraal occurs; “Ysiraal is desolated, its seed (or fruit) is not.” It can hardly be said that this allusion makes it easier to place the Exodus under Menephtah. The name of Israel occurs together with Palestinian names such as Ashkelon and Canaan, and this suggests that the Israelites had already reached and settled in Palestine; at the same time it is conceivable that the “desolation” of the Israelites is a courtly exaggeration for their disappearance from Egypt.
Of the actual sojourn of the Hebrews in Egypt the monuments tell us nothing; yet they provide many illustrations of the manners and customs alluded to in Genesis and Exodus. Thus we find officials in positions analogous to that of Joseph, cupbearers, and royal bakers; and we read of the hoarding of corn in years of plenty and its distribution in time of famine.
Egypt and the Jews under the monarchy; During the age of the judges and that of the first kings Egypt had little to do with the Hebrews. Solomon, among other foreign alliances, “made affinity” with an Egyptian king and married his daughter; but in the time of Rehoboam Shishak, king of Egypt, to whom the rebel Jeroboam had previously gone for refuge, invaded Judah (2 Kings 14:25) and devastated it. This invasion is also recorded in an Egyptian relief at Karnak, from which it appears that it did not leave the northern kingdom untouched.
In the 8th century B.C. the Palestinian peoples, who were beginning to feel the pressure of Assyria from the north, began also to look southward to Egypt for help. Thus about 725 B.C. Hoshea of Israel was persuaded by So or Sabako, an Egyptian officer who afterwards founded the 25th dynasty, to revolt from Assyria. The policy of Sabako was doubtless to make Samaria and Syria a barrier between Assyria and Egypt; it resulted, however, in the destruction of the northern kingdom. The politicians of Judah attempted even after this to persuade their kings to trust in Egypt, and one of the great tasks of the prophet Isaiah was to combat this futile policy. Tirhakah of Egypt marched against Sennacherib in the first years of the 7th century; but Esar-haddon in 671 struck the power of Egypt to the ground, and was able to style himself king of Upper and Lower Egypt and of Ethiopia. His successor Assur-bani-pal was much engaged in suppressing rebellion in Egypt; an Egyptian inscription gives a graphic picture of his successful attack on No (Thebes), to the fall of which Nahum alludes (Nah. 3:8) in his warning to Nineveh.
But the power of Assyria had now begun to wane, and in the time of Psammitichus I (663-610) Egypt regained its independence. His successor Necho formed aggressive plane against Assyria. Josiah of Judah, vainly attempting to stay his advance, was killed at Megiddo. Nacho himself failed in his enterprise, being routed by Nebuchadnezzar at Carchemish. Yet he and his country continued to be the bane of Judean politics. His intrigues were the ruin of Jehoiakim; and Zedekiah’s reliance on the Egyptian Hophra was the cause of the final siege and fall of Jerusalem (586). After the murder of the governor Gedaliah, a remnant that remained in Judah fled to Egypt, and settled to the east of the Delta; thither Jeremiah accompanied them, and in the place of their refuge, Tahpanes, prophesied the coming of Nebuchadnezzar and the ruin of Egypt. Discoveries at this plate make it clear that this prophecy was subsequently fulfilled.
In 525 B.C. with the conquests of Cambyses, began a period in which Egypt was subject to Persia; this subjection came to an end in 404, but Egypt had no settled government till the coming of Alexander the Great (332). The rule of a series of Macedonian kings (the Ptolemies) came to an end only with the incorporation of Egypt in the Roman Empire (31 B.C.).
Egypt and the Jews after the Exile; The stream of commerce drew many Jews to Egypt in the 3rd century B.C., and especially to Alexandria, where they had been granted special privileges by Alexander himself. In the 2nd century the Egyptian Jews possessed a separate temple at Leontopolis; by the time of our Lord the Alexandrian Jews were the most cultured and wealthiest Jewish community in the world; and long before than they had been a large and prosperous body, occupying two of the live city wards, and governed by a separate official. Here the great Greek translation of the Old Testament was made, during the 3rd and 2nd centuries, B.C. This version was called the Septuagint from a legend which assigned its composition to the miraculously unanimous work of seventy (or seventy-two) independent translators. Alexandria became also the home of a special type of Jewish philosophical theology, best represented by Philo (a contemporary of St. Paul), the great allegorical interpreter of the Bible. From here came the learned Apollos (Acts 18:24), and it has been held that the Epistle to the Hebrews is the work of an Alexandrian writer.
Early Christian tradition connected the founding of the Alexandrian Church with St. Mark; but little is known of it before about 190 A.D., when it appears as the most learned and liberal church of the age, and a great centre of Christian education.

Egyptians, Religion of the Ancient. (1) Egyptian beliefs about the future life. There were in Egypt several entirely different beliefs about the future life; but in one form or another the immortality of the soul was taken as an axiom.
(A) The simplest and most natural belief was that the soul hovered about the cemetery, under the form of a human-headed bird (see plate); and required food and drink, without which it would be reduced to feeding on refuse. To keep it in the grave, and satisfy it, jars of food and water were placed with the body. These were afterward commuted to models and then to painted figures of the food, and also of the servants and the occupations which the soul might desire.
(B) When a god of the dead was accepted, the dead were easily supposed to belong to him, and to form part of his kingdom, ruled over like that of an earthly king. The blessed fields of Aalu were the kingdom of Osiris; and the soul after being tried and accepted by Osiris, entered into the labors and the joys of the unseen world, where the soul is seen plowing, reaping, and threshing amid the canals in the fields of Aalu.
(C) The prominence of sun-worship brought everything into connection with Ra, the sun. As the sun floated over the earth on the celestial ocean, or passed into the terrors of the hours of darkness, so the soul was supposed to join the sun, and share in its joy by day or its divine strength to oppose the demons of the night.
(D) The belief that the body was essential to some future condition of happiness led to its elaborate preservation by embalming, so fitting it for union with the soul in another life; though none of the other three theories seem to require this. This last is the only belief which implies the dogma of a resurrection. The origins of these doctrines all lie in the prehistoric age. The theory A certainly belongs to the oldest burials that we know, in which a food vessel is always placed with the dead. Later are found the tools and weapons which imply the theory B, of the kingdom of Osiris like this earth; and the multitude of slave figures found in later times are intended to work for the dead in that state. Probably later than this is the less material theory C, of accompanying the sun in its course, and the complex geography of the hours of the night. Last of all was the theory D, which involves mummification, and which did not come into common use until the early historical times. The multitude of amulets of later date belong to this view.
(2) Various sources of Egyptian religion. Just as there were different beliefs about the soul, derived from different races who came into the country, so each race and tribe brought in its own worship. The earliest state that we can trace points to each divinity having been at first the sole god of one tribe or family; and the whole of the complication of polytheism in Egypt arose from the amalgamation of religions, which always takes place in mixed races. It seems most probable that different classes of gods belong to different sources along with the different beliefs concerning the soul. There are about 40 important divinities, beside some 400 minor varieties of these and spirits of Hades. The principal deities may be classed in four main types.
(A) The animal gods.
(B) The human gods, as Osiris Isis, Horus, and others.
(C) The cosmic gods, such as Ra the sun, Harakhti, Seb, Nut, Shu, etc.
(D) The abstract gods of principles, Ptah, Maat, Min, Hathor, etc.
These classes probably correspond in origin to the four beliefs about the soul, similarly lettered. A probably belongs to the negro element; B to the Libyan or North African European race; C to the Mesopotamian influence; D to the last great invasion which founded the dynasties of Egyptian history.
In later times arose innumerable complications of combined gods, such as Ptah-Sokar-Osiris-Khentamenti; and the habit of attributing the nature of several gods to one who was most prominent. In this way arose the later monotheism, which was only a fused polytheism.
One very remarkable outburst of a scientific monotheism of sun-worship is without parallel. About 1400 B.C. Amenhotep III introduced, and his son Akhenaten (“The glory of the Disc”) enforced, the worship of the radiant energy of the sun, in the same terms that modern religious materialist might use. This idea came from Mesopotamia with the foreign queens, and gives a valuable hint of religious thought there at a time before the Exodus.
Some of the later Egyptian ideas and phraseology of Greek times may possibly have had an indirect influence on Christian thought. The book of Wisdom, which is Alexandrian in origin, is the nursery of St. Paul’s thought and phrases; and in funeral inscriptions of that age we find that such an one “went to Osiris in his fortieth year” as in Christian epitaphs.
The late Egyptian religion was marked by the special prominence of Isis and Horus, and the transference of their worship to Italy, where Isis was widely worshipped during the early centuries of the Roman Empire.

Essenes, ĕs-sēnz′; Gr. ’Εσσήνοι, not mentioned in Scripture, but described by Josephus as one of the “three philosophical sects among the Jews,” the other two being of course the Pharisees and the Sadducees. The origin of their name is unknown. Philo calls them Essæi, because of their saintliness; for hosioi (= saintly) is the same word as Essæi. They were a sort of monastic society, bound together by oaths to piety, justice, obedience, honesty and secrecy. Their three rules were the “love of God, the love of virtue, the love of man.” They were ascetics, and generally celibates. Our Lord never pronounced woes against them as He did against the Sadducees and Pharisees. Josephus gives their number as 4000.

Fasts; The only fast appointed by the Law was the Day of Atonement on the 10th of Tisri (Lev. 16:8), but during the captivity four annual fasts were observed by the Jews: In the New Testament we have reference to (1) “the fast,” i.e., the Day of Atonement (Acts 27:9); (2) the weekly fasts (Matt. 9:14; Mark 2:18; Luke 5:33; 18:12; Acts 10:30). They seem to have been introduced some time after the Captivity, and were observed not as obligatory but as meritorious acts, especially by Pharisees, on the second and fifth days of the week. The fasts of forty days by Moses (Ex. 24:18; 34:28) and by Elijah (1 Kings 19:8) are shadows of the great fast of our Lord (Matt. 4:2; Mark 1:12-13; Luke 4:2).

Feasts, Jewish; A. Lunar Feasts. I. The SABBATH. The law of one day’s rest in seven is in Ex. 20:8 connected with the day of God’s rest after creation and in Deut. 5:12-15 with the deliverance from Egypt. This observance belongs to a whole class of Jewish feasts regulated by the cycle of the phases of the moon, and would seem akin to practices far older than Moses. Thus the ancient Assyrians kept the 7th, 14th, 21St, and 28th of each month as days of rest. On the Sabbath the daily sacrifices were doubled, and all work was prohibited. The details of this prohibition became in post-exilic times both burdensome and unreal, and called forth strong protests from our Lord.
The Christian Lord’s Day, or Sunday, has no original connection with the Sabbath. Primitive Jewish Christians would keep both Sabbath and Sunday: but Christians were not to be judged “in respect of a Sabbath” (Col. 2:16). The tendency to base the obligation of Lord’s Day observance on the Decalogue is not older than the 4th century A.D.
II. THE NEW MOON. The legal codes prescribed numerous burnt-offerings on the recurrence of each new moon, with a special sin-offering. We hear of these days also as specially used for consulting prophets (2 Kings 4:23), for special sacrificial meals in family life (1 Sam. 20:23), and for days of rest (Amos 8:5). Special sacrifices were ordered for the new moon of the seventh, or sabbatical, month, which was called the “feast of trumpets.”
III. THE SABBATICAL YEAR. The significance given by the lunar cycle to the number seven was extended also to years. Every seventh year was an agricultural Sabbath, and the land was left instilled. Slaves were released, or offered release (Ex. 21:2-6), and debtors set free (Deut. 15:1-6). The fruit of the land in this year belonged to the poor.
IV. THE YEAR OF JUBILEE was a further extension of the principle exemplified in III. In every fiftieth year (the year after seven times seven years) mortgaged property was returned to its original owner, and Hebrew slaves were set free. See Lev. 25:8-16,23-35; 27:16-25. B. Annual Historical Feasts. I. The PASSOVER, and the FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD. Later Judaism reckoned these two feasts as one, but originally they were distinct. Passover was connected by the Jews with the tenth of the plagues; the sprinkling of the blood of the Paschal lamb being a remembrance of the sign by which the Hebrews were separated from the Egyptians. This feast was kept on the 14th day of the first month (Abib or Nisan) by a common sacrificial meal, in which a lamb was eaten (as in peace-offerings), its blood sprinkled (as in the ritual of atonement), and the flesh-bones wholly consumed (as in burnt-offerings). It appears that in the Passover the historical association was grafted upon an older usage, i.e., that of offering the firstlings of the flock to God. Similarly the feast of unleavened bread, or Mazzōth, was in origin agricultural, and signified the offering of the firstfruits of the field. It began on the 15th day of Abib or Nisan, and lasted seven days; on the second day a sheaf of the new corn was offered (with a lamb of the first year). The exclusion of leaven from all Jewish houses during these days had historical associations with the haste of the Exodus (Ex. 12:34); but the connection of leaven with ceremonial pollution appears to be much older (Ex. 23:18), and the root idea of Mazōth would seem to be the separation of the fruit of the new year from the leaven of the old.
II. PENTECOST, or the Feast of Weeks. This was a festival of the completed wheat-harvest, and was kept 50 days after the offering of the firstling sheaf. On the fiftieth day sacrifices like those of the days of unleavened bread were offered; but the central feature was the offering of two loaves of the new wheat. See Ex. 34:22,23:16; Lev. 23:15-21; Deut. 16:9-12. III. TABERNACLES. This feast was kept from the 15th to the 22nd day of the seventh month, or Tisri. Its historical associations were connected with the wanderings of the Israelites in the wilderness, which were commemorated by the usage of living in tents or booths during these clays (Lev. 23:39-43). The origin of the feast is indicated by its other name, “feast of ingathering” (Ex. 23:16); it was the festival of the end of the harvest of fruit, oil and wine. In Num. 29:12-40 very numerous sacrifices are prescribed for it; and in later times many further ceremonies were added, which made it the most joyful of all feasts; e.g., the fetching of water from Siloam to the altar, the lighting of many lights, a daily procession round the altar, and the singing of many Psalms, notably the Hallel (Psa. 114:3-119:11).
C. The Minor Feasts. I. PURIM. The feast of Purim (or “lots”) was historically connected with the deliverance of the Jews from Haman (Esther 3:7; 9:15-32); its days were the 14th and 15th of the twelfth month, Adar. The book of Esther was read on the night of the 13th amid loud imprecations against Haman and his house: the whole feast was one of boisterous mirth.
II. The ENCÆNIA, or DEDICATION. The temple was re-consecrated for the worship of Jehovah, after its pollution by Antiochus Epiphanes, in 164 B.C. In remembrance of this re-dedication Judas Maccabieus instituted a festival of eight days, beginning on the 25th of the ninth month, Chisleu. From the joyful illumination of every house at this feast it was also called the “feast of lights.” It is referred to in John 10:29 as a winter festival.

Garments; (of men). The garments of Syrian men in the present day differ but little from those worn in the time of Moses. The chief are:
(1) a coarse linen shirt;
(2) linen drawers;
(3) loose pantaloons with a girdle to sustain them;
(4) an inner vest buttoned to the throat;
(5) a long loose robe with a leathern girdle;
(6) an embroidered cloth or velvet jacket;
(7) a keffiyeh or silk handkerchief for the head;
(8) hose and
(9) sandals.
Besides these:
(10) a long loose robe with short sleeves was worn in full dress (instead of the jacket or girded robe), such as our Lord laid aside when He washed the disciples’ feet (John 13:4);
(11) the aba, a coarse cloak of goat’s or camel’s hair, very large, so as to form a covering by night as well as by day, with which Elijah smote the waters of Jordan (2 Kings 2:8).
Garments; (of women). Women’s dress varied according to their estate in life (e. g., maid, wife, or widow). It differed from the men’s principally in the veil and cap, fitting close to the head, concealing the hair, and being profusely covered with gold and silver ornaments and with charms. The list of female clothing in Isa. 3:18-23 is scarcely intelligible now.

God. NAMES OF, IN OLD TESTAMENT.
To the Hebrews the name of God meant the revelation of His nature; hence the various names in O.T. are very important as showing the various conceptions of the Deity held by them in the successive stages of revelation.
El
is the most primitive Semitic name: its root-meaning is probably ‘strong: ‘ in classical Hebrew it is mainly
poetical. It is found in ancient compound proper names, such as Israel, Beth-el.
Elohim
is a plural name, but the plural seems to be “intensive” and often it implies “fullness of might” It occurs more than 2500 times, and is always rendered God in the Eng. versions.
Both El and Elohim are used of other gods than the God of Israel; hence we find such phrases as the “El, Jehovah” (Isa. 42:5, cf. Psa. 18:30); “Jehovah, he is the Elohim” (1 Kings 18:39), “the Elohim of Elohim” (God of Gods) (Deut. 10:17).
Elyon
(the Most High) is found only in poetry (Num. 24:16; Deut. 32:8; Psalms). The Canaanite priest-king Melchizedek was priest of El-Elyon (Gen. 14:18); the name was thus used by other nations than Israel.
El-Shaddai
(God Almighty) expresses the omnipotence of God as contrasted with the impotence of heathen deities.
Jehovah
the name revealed to Moses at Horeb, is the Name of the God of Israel. Its real pronunciation is approximately Yahweh, but this Name might not, according to Rabbinical teaching, be pronounced: hence it was written with the vowel points of Adonai (Lord), which was substituted for it in reading. The Name itself was not pronounced Jehovah before the 16th century. The meaning of JHVH, as it was written, is probably not “I am” but “I will become” thus it appears to contain the promise of a gradual revelation. It is frequently found in composition with proper names, as e. g., Yeho-shua (Joshua), Yehonathan (Jonathan), Eliyahu (Elijah), Hizki-yahu (Hezekiah). It also occurs as a name of God in phrases such as Jehovah-Elohim (Eng. the Lord God), Jehovah-Sabaoth (the God of hosts i.e., originally of the battlehosts of God’s people, then also of the “hosts of heaven”).
Adonai, Baal, Melekh
are names expressing the Divine dominion. Adonai is an intensive plural of Adon (=lord), and occurs not seldom in prophecy and poetry as a substitute for JHVH. It was applied by heathen nations to their gods (thus the Phoenician Tammuz has the title Adonis), and is found compounded with JHVH as a proper name (Adoni-yalu = Adonijah). Baal (= owner or master) was in late times remembered only as the title of the Canaanite local gods; but earlier it was used by worshippers of Jehovah. Thus one of Saul’s sons was called Ishbbaal: one of David’s men of war was called Baaliah (Baal-Ya = Jehovah is Baal). In Hos. 2:16-17 we find a protest against this use of a title which had come to have degrading associations; and the older obnoxious proper names were changed, bosheth (shame) being substituted for Baal. So we find Ishbosheth (2 Sam. 2:8), Mephibosheth (2 Sam. 9:6), Jerubbesheth (2 Sam. 11:21). Melekh (= king) was, like Baal, employed as a religious term by non-Israelites: but the evidence of Hebrew proper names shows that it was freely used of Jehovah in early days; cf. the pairs of names, Abi-melech (the King is father) and Abi-jah, Eli-melech (God is King) and Elijah, Ahi-melech (the King is brother) and Ahi-jah.

Idolatry; The idolatry into which the Israelites fell, and against which the prophets protested, was of two forms. (1) The worship of heathen idols, with all the immoralities connected with it. (2) The worship of Jehovah by means of images. The causes of the people’s lapse into idolatry were twofold. (1) The seductive fascinations of the free immorality of much of the heathen worship; and (2) the great difficulty of realizing an unseen, spiritual God.

Inn; was originally only a plot of ground, near a spring or well, and sometimes secured by a wall or fence, allotted as a camping-ground for the use of travellers. This was the “Inn” of the O.T. (Gen. 42:27; 43:21, etc., R.V. lodging place). In later times, some wealthy benefactor would raise the wall, build a few arches, unite them to the wall by a roof, close them with doors, and separate them by partitions, thus providing a separate room for each party; while the cattle were littered in the central open space, or in sheds abutting on the outside wall, or in natural caves around it. This is the modern Khan or caravansary, and such, it is thought, was “the inn” at Bethlehem (Luke 2:7); though the word translated “inn” may simply mean “guestchamber” and is so rendered in Mark 14:14; Luke 22:11.

Iron; Steel. Gen. 4:22; Deut. 8:9. Heb. Barzel; Gk. σίδηρος. Iron seems to have come into use after copper, tin and bronze, but in very early times. Steel is iron with a certain amount (0.6 to 2.0 percent) of carbon. “Steel” in A.V. of Jer. 16:12, is an erroneous rendering for “brass”; but steel is supposed to be meant by “northern iron” in the same verse; the most famous makers in old times being the Chalybes, near the Black Sea. In Nah. 2:3, “torches,” the translation of pelâdoth (rendered as “steel” both in Arabic and Syriac, and also in R.V.), is conjectured to be an error for “scythes” on the wheels of war-chariots. 2 Sam. 23:7; Job 28:2; Prov. 27:17; Isa. 45:2; Ezek. 27:12; Dan. 2:33,40.

Judges; The administration of justice amongst the Israelites, as in all early Eastern nations, rested with the heads of tribes, or of the chief families in a tribe (Job 29:7-10; Ex. 18:14-24). The judges of the period described in the book of Judges were “a succession of chiefs, who arose in different parts of the land, ruling with an authority which was personal and not hereditary.” “They were more like Peter the Hermit and Jeanne d’Arc than like Roman dictators.” “The signification of the Hebrew word is much wider than that of the Greek κριτής, the Latin judex, or the English judge.” “The judge was not only the vindicator, the punisher, but also the defender, the deliverer” (Int.

Locust; The “locust” includes the insects called in our version by the different names “beetle,” “cankerworm,” “caterpillar,” “grasshopper,” “locust,” “bald locust” and “palmerworm.” The Rabbis say there were 800 species; but only about forty have yet been identified in Palestine. In all stages of growth they are largely eaten by natives, and are a palatable food. Nine Hebrew words are used to express the locust species.
(1) (Ex. 10:4-6; Lev. 11:22). Heb. Arbeh (multiplier); Gk. βροȗχος; Zool. S. Œdipoda migratoria; Locusta peregrina. This is the common migratory locust. It is always mentioned with reference either to its numbers or its destructiveness.
(2) locust (Bald) (Lev. 11:22). Heb. Sal’am; Gk. ἀττάκης; Zool. S. Truxalis, “the devourer.”
(3) (Lev. 11:22). Heb. Hargôl; Gk. ὀφιομάχη. R.V. “cricket”; perhaps “galloper.”
(4) (Lev. 11:22). Heb. Ḥâgâb; Gk. ἀκρίς: perhaps “concealer” of the sun. Generally translated “grasshopper.”
(5) (Joel 1:4). Heb. Gâzâm, “shearer”; Gk. κάμπη; Zool. S. a lepidopterous larva. H.; Œdipoda migratoria. The “palmerworm” of A.V., consuming what the locust left. The larvæ of locusts and moths, before developing their wings; caterpillars.
(6) (Joel 1:4; Nah. 3:15; Psa. 105:34; Jer. 51:14,27). Heb. Yélek; Gk. βροȗχος, the “lopper” or “licker.” The “cankerworm” of A.V., in five passages; but rendered “caterpillar” in three. The larvæ of the locust.
(7) (Deut. 28:42). Heb. Tzĕlâtzal; Gk. ἐρυσίβη: the “tinkler,” referring to the “whirring” sound the locusts make.
(8) (Isa. 33:4; Amos 7:1). Heb. Gêb; Gk. ἀκρίς. Once translated “locust” and twice “grasshoppers” (marg. “green worms”).
(9) (Psa. 78:46). Heb. Ḥâsîl, “finisher’; Gk. ἐρωσίβη. Translated “caterpillar” in all passages; a destroying locust in some of its forms.

“Measure” (Psa. 80:5; Isa. 40:12) = 1/3 bath = 1 seah of dry measure (nearly 3 gal.).
“Measure” (Luke 16:6) = bath, 9 gal.
“Firkin” (John 2:6) = Gk. Mĕtrētēs′ = bath = about 9 gal. (8 gal., 5.12 pint).
“Pot” (Mark 7:4) = Rom. Sextarius = about 1 pint (0.96).
Note 1. These tables are in accord with the Greek and Roman measures in Harper’s Classical Dictionary (1897) and the Temple Bible (1901), and are as nearly as possible those used after the Exile and in New Testament times.
Note 2. The relations of these measures to one another are correct, but there is a double uncertainty as to the exact modern equivalents, for the capacity of the Hebrew measures cannot be accurately determined, and there is no uniformity as to the exact capacity of the English and American measures. There are, for instance, four different quarts in use named in the Century Dictionary.
Note 3. The bath was the unit of liquid measurement, as was its equivalent, the ephah of dry measure = Gk. Mĕtrētēs′. “According to Josephus it contained 72 Attic Sextarii = 0.96 pint x 72 = 8 gallons, 5.12 pints,” or one bushel and five pints dry measure. According to Colonel Conder, LL. D., in the Quarterly Statement of the Palestine Exploration Fund for April 1902, the bath occupied a cube of the small cubit, 13.33 inches, or the cube of 36 barleycorns = 12 inches.
Note 4. A liter, the unit of capacity in the metric system, is the volume of one kilogram of water = one cubic decimeter = 0.88 of an imperial quart, or 1.056 United States quarts.

“Measure” (Rev. 6:6) = Gk. Choinix = nearly one quart (0.96).
“Measure” (1 Kings 4:22; 2 Chron. 2:10) = homer.
“Bushel” (Matt. 5:15) = Rom. Modius = nearly a peck (0.96).
Note 1. The ephah was the unit of dry measure as the bath was of liquid.
Note 2. The equivalents here are in accord with Harper’s Classical Dictionary (1897) and the Temple Bible (1901). The relations of the measures are correct, but there is considerable variation as to their modern equivalents, at different times and according to different authorities.
Note 3. According to the careful calculations of Lieut.-Gen. Sir Charles Warren, an ephah or bath contained 2333.3 cubic inches. A log contained 32.4 cubic inches, or a cube each of whose sides = 3.185 inches.

Note 1. The unit of measurement was the cubit. The relations of the measures to one another are always as given, but the standards vary.
Note 2. The cubit was originally the length of the human arm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger (among the Greeks and Romans) and equaled a foot and a half.
Note 3. But as the length of the foot differed (the Greek foot being 308.3 millimeters, the Roman 295.7, the English 304.8), the Greek cubit was a little longer and the Roman a little shorter than a foot and a half English. See Harper’s Classical Dictionary, “Cubitus,” and table in the Appendix.
Note 4. The cubit in very early times was 25.19 inches, and after the Exile the legal cubit of the Talmudists was 21.85 inches. Col. Conder makes the cubit of 6 palms to be 16 inches, but gives five different lengths for the cubit according to the number of barleycorns, of which three = one inch.
According to Lieut.-Gen. Sir Chalres Warren, K.C.B., F.R.S., the length of the cubit regulated everything connected with weights and measures, and even the weight of the gold, silver and copper coinage. The building cubit of Egypt was 20.6 British inches or 7 palms, while the common cubit was 6 palms or 17.75 inches. “With this length Goliath at 6 cubits, one span would have measured 9 feet, 7.3 inches. The bedstead of Og (9 by 4 cubits) would have measured 13 feet, 3.75 inches by 5 feet, 11 inches.”

Note 1. The relations of the measures to one another are correct, but the standards vary slightly, the Roman Stadium, or furlong, being 185 meters, the Attic 177, the Olympic 192.
Note 2. The Roman mile was a little more than nine-tenths of an English mile.
Note 3. A meter, 39.37 English inches. The English foot is 0.3048 of a meter.

Note 1. The Actus was the basis of the whole system of Roman land measurement. It was 120 Roman feet long and 4 feet wide. The Actus Quadratus, or squared, was a square 120 feet each way.
Note 2. The Jugerum, “yoke,” was the area which a yoke of oxen could plow in a day.
Note 3. The foregoing tables will explain many texts in the Bible. Take, for instance, Isaiah 5:10: “For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath [nearly 9 gallons, or 3½ quarts of wine to an acre], and a homer of seed [10 bushels, 3 pecks] shall yield but an ephah [one bushel, 3 pints, or only one-tenth as much as the seed sown].”

Note 1. The shekel was the unit of value in common use.
Note 2. The value of the shekel = 4 Greek drachmas = 4 Roman denarii. The best specimens extant of silver shekels weigh 218 to 220 grains, showing the correctness of the theoretical standard of 224½ grains. So Hasting’s Bible Dictionary, but Harper’s Classical Dictionary gives the weight of the denarius in Augustus’ time, up to Nero, as 60 grains. A shekel therefore (4 denarii) = 240 grains.
Note 3. The reason for the different weights of the gold and silver shekels and their multiples lies in the fact that the ratio of silver to gold being 13.3 to 1, which was very inconvenient for commercial transactions, the ratio of the coins was made 15 to 1 by increasing the number of grains in a gold shekel to 252-2/3, so that 15 silver shekels = 1 gold shekel in value.
Note 4. There are no coins mentioned in the Bible before the Exile, and only one, the gold daric, in the Old Testament. But there were ingots or bars of gold and silver of definite weights for convenience of trade.
Note 5. These tables have been computed by a careful comparison of the article by Prof. A. R. S. Kennedy, D.D., in Hasting’s Bible Dictionary. The equivalents in English money are given on English authorities. Those in dollars and cents are in accordance with the denarius of 60 grains, as in the Classical Dictionary.
Note 6. One pound avoirdupois contains 7000 grains. One pound troy contains 5760 grains.

Note 1. The denarius was the standard coin of Rome, as the shekel was of Jewish currency. The coin shekel was about the size of an English half crown and a little larger that a half dollar.
Note 2. Since in all our coins the pure silver and gold are alloyed with harder metals to render them more enduring, the calculations of the equivalents in English money are based upon the price at which the Royal Mint buys pure gold, viz., £3 17 s. 10½ d. per oz. of 480 grains.
The equivalents in dollars and cents are based upon the amount of pure silver in the standard dollar of 416 grains, of which 371½ grains are pure silver. Silver is 16 to 1 of gold in the United States coinage. The denarius is calculated as 60 grains in weight, for the American equivalents, and as 56 grains for English money.
Note 3. The variations in values are very perplexing. In some cases the proportions of one coin to another varied in different ages. Before 210 B.C. a denarius (which means “10 asses”) consisted of 10 asses, but in the time of Augustus it consisted of 16. There were differences often between current and tariff values. The mina of silver was of a different weight from the mina of gold. The mina of the Old Testament consisted of 50 shekels, but in New Testament times of 25 shekels, or of 50 shekels of the sanctuary, each of which was the half of a common shekel.
The tables, therefore, are approximate only, for any particular age, but the proportions of the different coins are correct.
Money changers were a necessity because coins of so many countries were in circulation. They were especially necessary in connection with the temple offerings, which must be made in Hebrew money, while those who made the offerings came from all parts of the world. See Matt. 21:12; John 2:14.
Note 4. (From Lieut.-Gen. Sir Charles Warren, K.C.B., F.R.S., in Palestine Exploration Fund.) The standard weight of a talent was the weight of 2/3 of an ancient cubit cubed (or a cubic foot) in rain water. This was the standard at a very early period. But it did not become a standard of linear measure till the length of the cubit was reduced in Greece and Rome, when the side of this cube became the Roman foot.
The 2/3 cubic cubit or cubic foot was divided into 80 parts, or logs, or Roman pounds. The 2/3 cubit cubed or cubic foot of Greece, Rome and Europe generally is about two-thirds the capacity of that of Babylon, and the question arises whether this is due to the gradual depreciation of the cubit of 20.6109 inches to about 18 inches, or to a deliberate change of unit for purposes of convenience.
No doubt the old system of working in palms had many inconveniences, and the new unit of 70,000 to a double cubit cubed could not be fairly brought into use generally so long as the standard of length remained a broken number of inches, viz., 20.6109. The change that was made was a very simple one, by which the new pound (80 to a cubic foot) became half the monetary mina, of which there were 60 to an ancient cubic foot or talent, and by which the standard cubit of 20.6109 inches became 18 inches, and the double cubit became a yard or 36 inches.
This change consisted simply of reducing the content of the double cubit cubed by one-third, and using the side cube of this remaining bulk as the new standard of length.
It was discovered that 70,000 is nearly exactly 1½ times (36)3.
It has been shown that the inch is almost exactly equivalent to 1/70,000 double cubit cubed of the ancients, and that the foot and yard cubed are almost exactly two-thirds, respectively, of the 2/3 cubit and double cubit cubed.
The Hebrew kor (10 baths) is exactly half an English cubic yard. If the contents of a cubic yard are shaped in the form of a sphere and a cylinder encloses it and a cone be erected on the base of the cylinder with the same height, the cone will represent exactly a kor, the sphere will represent a cubic yard, and the cylinder will represent an Egyptian chest, and their proportions, respectively, will be 1, 2 and 3.
The English pounds Troy and avoirdupois appear to have been derived from different sources.
The pound Troy would appear to have the same relation to the cubic foot as the Roman pound has to the Roman cubic foot, and thus to have been derived from the Babylonian measures.

Note 1. This calendar has been adapted to the three years, 1902, 1910 and 1915, by Dr. Solomon Schindler, late Rabbi of Temple Adath-Israel, Boston, U.S.A., in order to show the variation of the months from the corresponding ones given in the column of modern months. They vary nearly as our Easter-tide. Out of eight years, the calculations for which are before me, in four Nisan (April) begins in March and in four in April.
Note 2. The Jewish year is strictly lunar and contains 354 days, or 12 lunations of the moon, but in a cycle of 19 years an intercalary month (Veadar) is seven times introduced, to render the average length of the year nearly correct. “This thirteenth month was added to the year whenever on the 16th of Nisan the barley was not yet ripe, but this was forbidden in the sabbatical years, as two intercalary years in succession were not allowed” (H. von Soden, in Encyc. Bib.).

Revelation
|
|
The whole of this book is a reflex of the prophetic visions of the Old Testament. It contains pictures of that heavenly form of worship divinely manifested to Moses (of which the Tabernacle ritual was only a pattern), reproduced and further developed by its fulfillment in the Atonement of Christ; while it also repeats the mysterious predictions, uttered by Isaiah, Ezekiel and Daniel, portraying the philosophy of history, the recurrence of its cycles, and the supremacy over all other powers of the kingdom of Christ. It is, therefore, full of references and allusions to the writings of Moses and the prophets, too numerous to be tabulated, and often allusive rather than literal; but the marginal references will better aid the reader in working out the connection between this Revelation, which closes Holy Scripture, and the inspirations vouchsafed to the earlier dispensation, which prepared the way for the fullness of the glory of Christ.
|
Note 1. St. Stephen, in this chapter (Acts 7:2-50), refers to God’s dealings with His people, in support of his argument that God’s favor has never been limited to one particular place. He glances cursorily at the sacred records and does not quote literally. (See next table, “Acts.”)

Note 1. This exact term is not found in any prophecy. Chrysostom and others suppose it to be quoted from some lost book. Jerome refers it to the Hebrew word Nezer, “a sprout,” and identifies it with “the Branch,” by which the Messiah is designated by Isaiah and Ezekiel. This view is adopted by most modern expositors. Others consider it to be equivalent to “a reproach” or “scorn of men” (Isa. 53; Psa. 22), and recognize the fulfillment of those prophecies in the low estimation in which the people of Nazareth were held by the other Jews (John 1:46).

Priest; (Heb. Côhên; Gk. ἰερεύς). Heb. 5:10; 2 Peter 2:9. “Priest” is a contraction of the Greek presbyteros, Lat. presbyter, “an elder” or “elderly.” The word has a noteworthy history. “Presbyter” was first a name for the officials of the Jewish religious community; it then became a title of office in the Christian Church and ultimately came to = the Lat. sacerdos and Gk. ἰερεύς, losing its original connotation of “elder” and acquiring that of “sacrificing minister.” The essential idea of the Jewish Côhên was that of a mediator between God and man, (1) by ministering at the sanctuary, (2) by teaching the law of God, (3) by inquiring for the people the divine will.

Prophet; The literal meaning of the Greek word (προφήτης, from πρόφημι, “to speak forth”) is a forth-teller, i.e., one who speaks forth the message which has been communicated to him through divine inspiration, whether of practical duties or future events. The emphasis of the prophet’s work lay on the former.
The Hebrew words are: (1) nâbî’, from a verb meaning “to boil forth” as a fountain, hence one who speaks out freely from a full heart impelled by an inspiration from God. (2) rō’eh, from a verb meaning to see, hence a seer (1 Sam. 9:10), one who saw divine visions, divine truths, and spoke what he had seen from God.

(2) “Proselytes of the Gate,” who were allowed to join in the worship of God, standing in the outer “court of the Gentiles,” but were not bound by the ceremonial laws of Moses, but only by the moral ones.

Sadducees, săd′-dū-c̣eeṡ; A religious party of the Jews, in opposition to the Pharisees. The name is derived either from Zadok (Gk. often Saddouk), a Rabbi who lived about 300 B.C., or from Sadoc, “just,” “righteous,” as a retort against the arrogant title of “pious” adopted by the Pharisees. They were very conservative in theology, and refused to admit any doctrine which could not be traced to Moses. (Hence their address to our Lord: “Master, Moses said ... ”) Thus they retained the vague ideas of a future life held by the earlier Hebrews, denying the doctrine of resurrection; and in consequence their creed was rationalistic in tone; they held that there was “neither angel nor spirit.” In our Lord’s time the high-priestly aristocracy was largely Sadducæan (Acts 4:17).

It consisted of an equal number (24) of priests, scribes and elders, all of whom were required to be married, above 30 years of age, well instructed in the Law, and of good report among the people.

Synagogue, The; (Gk. συναγωγή, “a gathering together”; Heb. Keneseth), was a term applied both to the congregation in a provincial town, and to the room in which it met during the week for mutual instruction, disputation, and administration of justice, and on the sabbath for prayer and praise, not sacrifice. The institution of the synagogue dates probably from the Captivity in Babylon. There are said to have been 480 synagogues in Jerusalem, but this is probably an exaggeration.
The principal officers of the Synagogue were:
(1) The Batlanim (men of leisure). These were the “Rulers of the Synagogue” also called the “shepherds” and the “elders” they had special seats of honor assigned them during divine worship (Acts 13:15; Matt. 23:6). They also formed the local Sanhedrin or tribunal.
(2) The Shellach (Delegate). He was one of the elders, delegated by the Chief Shepherd (Parnas) to recite the most sacred portions of the liturgy, and be the mouthpiece of the congregation.
(3) The Chazzan (literally Inspector), the permanent minister or attendant (Luke 4:20), whose duties were partly ecclesiastical, partly civil. He frequently acted as schoolmaster.
(4) The Methurgeman (Interpreter). As the synagogue came principally into use in later times, when Hebrew was not well-known and Greek and Aramaic were more generally used in common life, the Law was expounded to the congregation by an interpreter. This word Methurgeman, or Turgeman, has been corrupted into the modern Dragoman.

Vestment; It was and still is customary for every Jew, on entering the synagogue for religious worship, to put on the Tallith or scarf of white lamb’s wool with blue stripes and fringes at each end. It marked the worshipper as being a true Israelite. It was perhaps some similar vestment which Jehu ordered “him that was over the vestry” to supply to each worshipper of Baal (2 Kings 10:22), the acceptance of which was the profession of being a true Baalite.

Vinegar; The Hebrew term Hômêts was applied to a beverage consisting usually of wine or strong drink turned sour. By itself it formed a nauseous draught (Psa. 69:21), and its acid taste passed into a proverb (Prov. 10:26). It was drunk by laborers (Ruth 2:14). Similar to the Hômêts of the Hebrews was the acetum of the Romans, which, under the name of posca, was the ordinary drink of the Roman soldiers (Matt. 27:48; Mark 15:36; John 19:29-30).

Vocal music; occupies an important place in Scripture, both in religious worship (1 Chron. 6:32), public rejoicings (1 Sam. 19:2.6), and social festivities (Gen. 31:27; Isa. 5:1; 24:9). It is mentioned among the earliest expressions of joy (Ex. 15:21), and was accompanied by dancing (2 Sam. 6:16), and cispping of hands, especially in the “chorus” (Psa. 47:1). For worship David chose a body of singers (1 Chron. 16:41); Jehoshaphat appointed a band of singers to praise God in front of his army (2 Chron. 20:21). After the captivity we find an equal number of male and female voices (Ezra 2:65), who sang alternately. They formed a distinguished cisss, had a separate maintenance (Neh. 11:23), had cities assigned to them (Neh. 7:73), and chambers for those in attendance at the temple (Ezek. 40:44). From the dedication of some Psalms there would seem to have been a written musical notation, but no certain record of it is extant.

Note 1. The above table is in accord with the article by A. R. S. Kennedy, D.D., in Hastings’ Bib. Dict., and with the weights given in the Tables of Money.
Note 2. But there was a great variation in those times as there is now in different countries and at different times in the same country.
Dr. Kennedy makes the Denarius 56 grains.
Harper’s Classical Dictionary makes it 60 grains, and the Mina and Talent are increased accordingly.
The Mina (pound) Heavy Weight Troy = 2 lbs.
The Mina (pound) Heavy Weight Avoir. = 1½ lbs.
The Mina (pound) Light Weight Troy = 1 lb.
The Mina (pound) Light Weight Avoir. = ¾ lb.
The Mina Silver Roman Weight Avoir. = 1-5/7 lbs.
The Mina Silver Babylonian Weight Avoir. = 2½ lbs.
Note 3. The Shekel is the unit of weight.
Note 4. The Pound Avoir. = 7000 grains.
The Pound Troy = 5760 grains.
Note 5. Pound in John 12:3; 19:39 = the Litra = Roman Libra = 5050 grains = 11 ounces, 237½ grains. Pound in Luke 19:13, etc. = the Mina.

Wine; Several Hebrew words are translated thus in the Old Testament:
(1) The most general term is yayin, connected with the Greek οἴνος and the Latin vinum (Gen. 49:12; Prov. 20:1; Isa. 5:11).
(2) Tirôsh, the fruit of the vine, of which the etymological meaning is uncertain, but its intoxicating properties seem clearly indicated in Hos. 4:11, “Whoredom and wine [yayin] and new wine [tirôsh] take away the heart.”
(3) ’Asis (Song of Sol. 8:2; Joel 1:5; 3:18), from a root signifying “to tread,” indicates new wine, the first rich juice or must.
(4) Chemer (Deut. 32:14), in the Chaldee chamar (Ezra 6:9), seems to point to an unfermented liquid, foaming when freshly poured out.
(5) Sôbe is derived from a root meaning to “soak” or “drink to excess” (Isa. 1:22; Hos. 4:18; Nah. 1:10). In the New Testament we have:
(1) οἴνος, answering to yayin as a general term for wine (Matt. 9:17; John 2:3; Eph. 5:18, etc.).
(2) Sikera, a Greek form of the Hebrew shêcâr, a generic term applied to all fermented liquors except wine (Luke 1:15).
(3) Gleukos, sweet wine (Acts 2:13). The wine mingled with myrrh given to our Lord was designed to deaden pain (Mark 15:23). In connection with the Lord’s Supper, Jesus never uses the word “wine,” but always the “fruit of the vine,” not excluding, but also not requiring, the use of fermented wine.

Writing materials; The common writing materials of the Babylonians consisted of clay, and an instrument of wood, bone, or metal, having a point of three unequal facets, with which to impress the cuneiform characters upon the clay while moist. Such was the writing on the Tel-el-Amarna tablet letters between Jerusalem and Egypt 1500 years before Christ. The writing materials of the Egyptians consisted of papyrus, reeds, ink, and a palette having a hollow for holding the reeds, and a number of circular and oval hollows for holding ink of various colors.
