The term is thus in itself nearly equivalent to "transmission," Uk* tht Latin trnjin'o — JUattora, fnr which last, in- iiti, the Talmud makea It Interchangeable In the ■UKment, " Hoses received (^Xp) the I^w on Uannt !<iaaL and tmumitted 0&^) >t to Joebaa." The dlf- ftnBce betwecD il, however, and the word ITJIOO (tm ^D'^, ftr delirer) is, that the ftmntr expresses Ihe ad tfrtftivimg, while the latter denotes tht act ofgw- Hf ottr, tvrrtmi'triitg, tnmtmitHMg. The Cabala is also called by »nie n^FiBJ f^Sn, Kcr^ mufoin, becanae it prrtendi to be a very ancient and Mcrel tnditian, •ad ', n. jpron, titrat the Initials of these two words.
Tba term KMnUik Is empiofed In the Jewish writ- iip lo denote several tnditionsJ doctrines ; as, Tut * . that which constitated the creed of the patrl- e liefore the giving of the law ; thst nnwrit- Eta ritosl interpretation which the Jews believe wss nvesled by Cod to Hoses on the mount, and which wss at length committed to writing and formed the Ukhna. Besides being applied to these and other naiitir traditinns. It has also been uied in, compara- tirely speaking modem times, to denote a singulsr nyitic mode of interpreting the Old Tetument.
IVe are reminded by this indeflnite title thst among the Jews, as thiKugbont the fcreoter part of the East, haasD knowledge, whether historicsl or scientific, •Hted principally on a sort of (tmnrioa, and the l>t>t (Uin for its leception was an unbroken chain of tra- filiooiry evidence. Hence the care with which Juda- Lnn eslabliabed the reinUar consecution nf the sacred rmtoifisni of truth, fTom Moaei through J[»hua and the KHOtM greater jKvphels, thence through Ein ud " the iBreat Synagogue" to the taschers of later tinea, nhdlviding at length Into the varinun schools 9r pcriodi of particular rabbii and their hereditary sd- beieata. While, therefore, the truth was gradnallv exhibited hi the writings of the Law, the Prophets, tkeTalnod, the Cabala indicates the verbal expcai II.-l
of theae, orally transmitted along with them, and not generally known to the people, hut containing a deep- er or mere thoroughly inltiiited style of instruction. It thus came aitimately to designate a particular tbeo- iogico-philosopliical system, that arose and established itself in the bosom of Judaism, yet In a measure inde-
II. i>npHw(i>DciiinniIi,~ln>truction in Judaism be- ing principally verbal and founded on memory, its phases of development could necessarily leave but lit- tle mark on bi&torv; and as such a philosophy would tho* naturally, in pR>ces« of time, liecome a mystery, at least in the view of posterity, the origin and prog- ress of the Cabala are yet largely matter* of cunjecture, and it is even a subjactofscientlHc controversy wheth- er in its speculative form It can l>e distinctly tracid eirlier than the Middle Ages, although its leading principles appear to have lieen derived from ancient documenta, the nature of which la still very imperfect- ly understood, such as the sD-called revelations of Adam, Abraham, Hoses, Ezra, sic. See Ai-ochypiia. The Talmud, indeed (both in the Micbna and Gemars
trine imparted only to a few carefullv selected persons, and even applies to it certain fanciful names (drawn ftom the phraseology of Gen. i, 1, and Eiek. i, 1), sig- niflcant retiprcUvely of a ppeculative oimi^ogy and a speculative thtoiogy; but it is uncertain whether theae designate definite treatisef, nr, Ifso. whether these have in any identifiable form descended to modem times. The only works which can with any |— fsiaty claim to embody these ejrliest views are the follDwlng two, thM became the acknowledged texts of the Cabala in the lat- ter pjrt of the Uiddle Ages; a third cabaliatlc trMtlsa (called the ^■'HS "IDD, S'phtr Bachir, or CHre Boi*\ which is found in an ^tion of AmFt. IGSl, and attrib- uted to B rablii, Necboniah Ben-Hakua, of the fltrt century, ha* long ago been generally acknowledged to be fictitious, although a cabaiietic work of the same title is mentioned »s early as the fourteenth century.
The first of these is the Boot of Crtatum {tSO n^"S% S pkr Ytlarah, often reprinted, as ed. Steph. Hittangel, Amst. 164!, vrith a I-atin translation and commentary ; and the ed. of J.

It is a rather short traatisa, In oracnlar sentences, the language of which, more obscure in import than in fum). does not resemUe the Hebrew of the Miehna. As a bonk of the some title appears to )te already men- tioned in the Gen-aro, where wonderhil povter ia os- ; cribed to It, and as R.

Sheklnab) which dwells In the midst of the Jewish people, goes with them and pro- tects tbem in all their wanderings and captivities. The first triad is placed al^ve, and the second and third triads, with tbe unit, arc |uit below, in aech a mannT that the fiiur Srphimrh called fron, bmnlg, fivndiili/ti, and Hngd4rm, form a central perpendicolar line denominated lie m-dille pUbrr ('rxrtt naST).

" Tha whole world is like > gigan- tic tm fall of branches and leavers, the root of which h ihi! apirituil world of tfaa Strath: nr it b like a flrmly united chain, the lait link of which is attachaiJ ID tba upper irorld ; or like an Imminie aea, which is beina cnn^untly filled by a ipring Bverl««tingty gush- ing forth its stnams." The .'itphirMh, through the di- Tine power immjnent in them, uphrdd the world which th«T have created, and transmit to it the divine mer. ri™ bT means of twelve channels (nTT!K> This tnnaminioii of the divine mercies can b« iiccelerateil by pnyer, sacrifices, and religious observances; and t^ Jewish people, by virtue of the revelHtion, and the 613 commandments given to them («« Schools), faive npeciftlly been ordained to obtain these blessings (;E5) for the whole world.

4. The p^rialcgf of the Cabala is one of Its most iapottant features. All human soul* are pre-exi»tont ia the worid of the Swiirolk, and are, without >n ex- ception, destined to InRabit human bodies, and pursue tbeir oDorse upon earth for s certain period of proba- lion. If, ootwithsWnding its union with the body, iha sodI resists all earthly trammels, and remains For*, it a*«ndi after death into the i>pirit<ial kingdom, •ltd has a share in the world of Srplihvli. Bnt if, on Ike eoolwy. it becomes contaminated by that which is earthlj.the soul must inhabit the tody again and ■«ain paV- i'^^"'?) till it is able to ascend in a pu- liSed stale, throvgh repeated trial (restricted by Nach- ■ ninldea and the later ciballsts to Ikree trsnsmigra- liMu). Tht apparently undeserved luHiuings which |
CABALA
the pions have Fometimes to endore here below are simply deeigned to purify their fouls. Hence God's justice is not to be impugned when the rlgliteous are sSlicted and the wicked prosper. This doctrine of the transmigration of souls is supported liy an appeal to the injunctinn in the Bible, that a man mu»t marry the widow of his brother if be died without issue, ins'- much as by this is designed, say the cubalbts, that tha soul of the departed cme might be bom again, and fln- loh its earthly course. Very few new souls enter into tbe world, because many of the old iwuls which have already Inhsliited liodies have to re-enter those vho are bom, in consequence of their having polluted them- selves in their previous bodily existence. '1 his retards tbe great redemption of Israel, which cannot take place till all the pre-existent souls have been Ixirn upon earth, because the soul of the Messiah, xhich, like all other souls, baa its pre-ezistence in the world of the Bpintsorthe«rpAii'DfA,is tobetbelastbom one at (As nd of dayt, which is supported by an appeal to the Talmud (IVionri*, 63, a). Then the great jubilee year will commence, when the whole pleroma of souls (niia^m -Ix'iK), cleansed and purifled, and released from earth, shall ascend, in glorious companv, into heaven.

IV. Origin, Date, Deiiga, <md Sihlicm of the Citlxda. —The rise of Cabalbni is involved in greut obecuritv. The Jews ascribe It to Adam, or to Abraham, or to Moses, or to Illzra, the last being apparentiv counte- nanced by 2 Esdr. xiv, 20.-18. 1 he opinlons'of Chris- tian writers are as variously divided ; and the Cabala ia such a complex whole, and has been aggregated to. gsthor at such distant periods, that no general jndg- can ajqily to it. In its crude form It is undoubt- . to he attributed to the authors of the books Jezi- rah and /ohar above named, and therefore cannot be ligned an earlier djlo than these writings. Its full- and more mature doctrines, however, as above de> ested, are due to the speculations of later masters of this school. The account nf this theoeophy has lieen greatly ohscurcd by modem writers, who, in their description of the Cabala, confound its doctrines with i*» JrEciiA mysrieism propounded in the works called ike AljAafift ofR.

Even tbe book Jiirah does contain the doctrines of the Cabsla as above ex- ided. AH these productions, and others of a sim- ilar nature so fref[uently quoted liy writers who give an analysis of the Cabala, know little or nothing of the SrpAiroti, and of the speculations Bl>out the En- ^qpA, or the being of God, which constitute the essence of the Cabala.

V. Later Pntcnrt r-f Cabiditm. — In tlie bands of
cret knowledge wua nut only studied in ita philosoph- ical l)earln);. hut also, and even rather, under two new Bspi!ct4 (which were not mentioned by their predecea- aoro, and which carried it farther than it went at hrat, tliougb by this we do not mean to say that it received any pnsittvely novel additions), namely, the practical application and the hmnnmliral method. We find that in oblen times secret philosophical science and magic went hand in hand. 1'be soTctrer mentioned in Acta xiii was called by the Arab name of dV'^S, Ae mcrrt, i. e . learned ; In Acts xix we read of books of magic which were at Epliesus; the sporadic mentions mide of the Cabala in the Talmud are accompanied by descriptions of mlraclsa. When B. Chahina and B.Othla studied the book of Jexlrab, we are told in tbe treatise aimAidrim of the Gemara, they alao made each time a three-year-old cow, and lived thereon. It ia no wonder, then, if the Jewish cabatiRta of the latter part of the Kiddie Ages transmitted the conceptinn of their science to their Christian adejits, not only as specuUtive C^'"?"'?), b" "li" " practical (n'-isr^), i. e. in plain English, that they connected with it the Idea tbnt a true cabalist must at the same time be a aorcerer. It is self-evident, however, that we must here distinguish between theosophlc overstfaining and mere Juggling, although in actual practice the diS^- ence may sometimes have been hard to perceive. The affects hoped for or believed in magic wwe accordlnirly transmitted outwardly through amuleta, tilisinaiis, exorciiims, images, slgnF, and such things, consisting of cert.iin writitiea, names of angels, or mysterious letters, whose connection, however, always leads back to tbe name of God, This last, unpro- nounceable to the unconseerated. but known to the cabalist, whether it consist of four (i'l-in'') twelve, or forty-two letters (numben which result frohi combina- tions from the Sepblr system), was. as such, called Dd Oi^illsn, tit didoT'd now ; and he who knew bow to MM it' was a D^H ^73. or maOtr of Iht name. The well-known implements of magic, such as Solomon's keys, tbe shield of David, etc., owe their origin to this line of ideas. Amateurs will find a ver}- enlertaiaiog

The exegetical Ingenuity of Ihs Cabala la interest- ing to tbe theologian. The principle of tbe mystic in- terprnition of Scripture is unlTprsol, not particular la such or such schools, as every one will perceive In Cborch hiitory. and even iu the hiflory of Greek lit- erature. We And it in Pbilo, in the New Teat., in th« writings of the fathers, in tbe Tabawl, and in the Ze- kar; and Ibe more it depurts trrnn the spirit of the aa- cred text, the more hud the latter ta be brought to its support by distortiona of ita meaning. For sncb ope- ration there are no known rulca except the exigenciea of the case and the suljective mars of the sense. Seo MraTiciaM. In the mean time, the Jews bad already, by the arbitrary character of their alphabet, arrived ht all manner of subtletiea, of wblch we have already iso- lated examples in earlier writings, but which were er> pacially estal^lished aa ■ rlrtuosoship in post-Zobarlc tlmea. From tbia araae the following specie* of caba- listic transfbnnallcn : IsL K^STI, Grmatiia (^jiaipi- rpla),i.e. the art nfdiacovering the hidden sense of Ibe text by means of the numerical equivalents of the let- ters. For example, in the lirHt and last tfihs of th« Hebrew Bil.Io are found six K'a, which, acoardlng to Ibis method, means that the world Is to last flOOO year*. Tbe numerical equi\'a]ent of the first word of Geneaia is 9IB, which is also tbe nnmber given by the worda ^?7 n^lPa (Sy UU idw He/omni U, i. e. tbe world), (torn whence It follows that tbe law existed before tbo creation, and that the latter was accomplished throuRh the former. If the second word of Genesis (if^a) bo added to the first, the result is 1116, which is also the equivalent of !t^31 HirH dxina (in tkt brffnmmf rf !he year it ittu matti), by which is known that God created the world in the beginning of the year — that is, in the season of Autumn. Tbe antiquity of (his method is already shown in Rev. xill, 18, where Ihe solution must be ciphered out with the aid of the lln- brew (or Greek) alphaiicl. It is also considered as Gematria when Oibllcul num)-cr< — ftir Instance, di- mensions of buildings — are expressed In letlerr, anil words again made of them. Still later came specula Hona on the greater, smaller, inverted, and suspended letters found In the Masoretic text ; for instance, Deut. vl, 4; Gen. ii, 1; Num. x, M; Jndg. iviii, SO, In whlcb some dpep meaning ia looked for, altbou. h they nay perhaps hare originally been but peculiar msrka to aid memory. !d. Tbe particuUriy so-called "fig- urative" (n-'^nnx) Cabala, "i^p^^ai!, SotarihoK (fmm LaL notart, to extract), conalita in framing with each letter of a word several new ones, e. g. troia the firat word of Genesis aix can tfaoa be ftamed; K'^S, ks made; S^p^, Ihafiraammt; ^^S, tkt tarlkt OTBl^, Iktk-aoeiui D^,<A«Ko,- Oinni tte oftyss. Wo thus learn the correct scientific nature of the unlverae, bo- sides the proper meaning of the text. Again, it con. Msts in taking the fitit letters of several worda to form a new one: e. g. Deut. xxx, 12, n^aEll »5i-nb?^ -Q, who iJiaBbriiip la lo kfaomT Answer: nS^, ctrcBia. cutoa. ad, n^ilSFI, TemtiraA {pemmtatiai), the ani. gram, of two kinds.

The mors ingenious kind ta that by which, according to certain estibllalMd rule*. each letter of the alphabet acquires the slgniAcation oF another : as Aleph that of Tau, both that of Ayin.

TI. U/traiart. — As a sort of accedwry subject of the so-called Orientalism, and even of Biblical erudi- tion, the Cabala Is mentioned by tbe ancient archno- lognea and iaagogics (us Cunetis, Bttpabl. Iltbr, ; Wak ton, Pro'egg. 1 Hottinger, Tkmnirtu Fiitul. i Leosden, Philolngut Hrbr. ; Pfeifer, Critiea Sacra, and many olhera); but they contain nothing of importince re- specting it. Much more copious, though not yet com- plete. Is the inrnrmation contained in the worki of Bud- deua, rnhmphia E'Toomm (1702): Hackspsn, Mit- fUmta: Eniim,Sdtelaaaera,v, Riimmjnn,./il<fuak Th-vlogie. The worlt of Sommer, Speeinen Ik'olagia Sohineai (Goth. 17B4), is (like miny others which b'j- biici us quotes in the ilib'i •sniiM.i A nHq. p. -HG) onij a polemico-Bpologetic attempt at tiacing the Christian doctrine of (be Trinity in the C^ibsla.

Pkiloi,<jiua (vol. ii), who, however, IVoni insulGcient study of the origin»l sources, acknowledges liimself unable to master ita intricate history. Among later writers we find the well-known works crfTennemann, Tiedemann, and Buhle. The line of tha mo.e recent monogiapbic researches liegina with Kieuksr (Ri.n, 17S6). But Christian writers, whose early knowledge of rabbinic literature bas been fast waning, uenerally forsake it. Thoiuck's treatise, i).- orfu Cabbult (IHST), treats only of a preliminary question. l.ntCerlieck, in tbe first volume of hia Xeulril. tjehrbrgrij. has a very interesting chapter on the Jeiirah and '/Miat. Moli- tor'a extensive work, Pldba. d. Gackiditt d. Tradilion (1S2T, pt. i-iii), is chiefly theoretical. Reuchlin <_Dt arte GiAWiifKci, 1517) is still a valuable authoritv.

A ci^ on tha eastern liorder of the tribe of Asher, and apparently at the northern part, beyond Beth-Emek (Josli. xix, 27). It seems to cort^pond to the viliu.e Ckabolo t_\affm- Xt) mentioned by Josephus {L/r, § 43, 4o) as on tbe confines of Ptolemais, in Galilee, 40 siddia from Joto- pata. A fortress by the name of Kabul is mentioned by Arabian geogmphers in the district of Safed (Ro- senmQlier, Analerl. Arab, iii, 20). Dr. Roblnton, during his last visit to l*aiestine, accordingly funnil a village called A'ntu'on his wav to Aceho, aituated "oii the left, among the lower hills'" (SiWi-.t*.

The situation of Cubul has been disputed ; but we are content to accept the Inlbnnatinn of Josephus (Jut. viii, S, 3), who aeema to place it in tbe north-weat part of Galilee, adjacent to Tyre. The foregoing town, named Cabul (Josh, xix, 27), being also in GaUlee, il is possible tliat it was ona o( tbe twenty towns consign- ed to Hiram, who, to mark his dutsstisfaction, applied the significant name of this one town to the wbole dis- trict. The cBUMoflliram's dislike to what Solomon doubtless considered a li1>er-l gill Is very uncertain.

' What must I sing?' said he. 'Sing me tbe urigin of things.' The snl:^ thus ^iven him, he composed the short ode in question. When he awoke, the words were fast in bis mind.

But, besides this, a very long Saxon pnero, which ia a nutrical p,.Taphtase on parts of tba Scriptum, it atMliutrd to Caidmon. An edi- tion of It waa printed at Amsterdam in 1655, ander the care of Junius. Hlckes eipreries doubts whether this poem can be attributed to so early a period aa the time of Cadmon. He thinks he perceives certain Dano- Saxonitms in it which wunld load him to refer It to a much later period. It has been again printed, wilfa a much more accursto text, by Mr. Thorpe, as a publica- tion by the Society of Antiquaries (Lend. tlvo. 188!).

CsernlarlwB, SIiciiaei., patriarch of Canrtanllro- plo (A,D. 1W3-10S9). He was one of the chief pro- moten of the great schism batireea the Eastern and Western cbunbes- In 1U54 Pope Leo IX sent legates to Constunlinople to accommodate matters ; but they. Iieing displcBsed at the treatment they received, left a written letter ofexcommunication, directed against the patriiir(.'h, on Ihe altar of the churth of St. Snphin, and departed, having shaken off the dust frem their feet. Tbe ostensible causes of dlfTennee lietween the chureb-
Leo, archliishop of Aeryda, to John, bishop of Trani, were tbe following: that the latins consecrated with unleavened bread ; ^at they added tbe words Ft oqve to tho creed of the CbDreb; that thry taught that Ihe souls of Iho faithful make expulinn In tbe llres of Pur- gatory ; and that In aome other reupccls they dilTcred in their customs frem those of the East. After this outrage on lbs part of the Roman legates. Ccrularins called together a synod at Conrtaniinople 1064, and excommunicated them and iheir adherents, Cvrula- rios himself was a man of ambitious views and arro- ginl disposition, and little likely to ward off the final niptiire with Rome, which in fact took place.

It wai situated nn the cnast of Pdlea- tine, on the line of the gre^t roid fironi Tyre In Euypt, and about half way between Joppi and Dora (loMphuH, War, i, 21, 5). The journey of the apnttle Peter from .loppi (Acta I, 24) occupied rjther more than i diy. On the other hjncl, Paul's journey from Ptolemaia (Acts xii, S) waa occomplishad within the day. Tho distance Arom Jeruaitem la stit^d by JoeejAua in tduu'I ' numbera as 600 stidia (Anl. xili, 11. 2; War, i, 3. b). The JerusaJem Itineriiy iilvea «ixt.v-'?i(ht miles ( ITi-t- teling, p. BOO; see Rolitnaon, B^. Rt: lii, U). It has been aacertained, however, that there waa a shorter road tiy AiUyxilrU than that which is given in the Itinerary — a point of aome importance In reference to
The actual distance in a direct line is forty-seven En j- lisb miles.
In Strabo'ttlme there waa on this paint of the coast merely a town called ■■ Strato's Tower," with a tand- ing'place {Trponop^ov •l:'u>'), whereas, in the lime of Tacitus, Ceiarea ia apokcn of aa being the head of Ju- dsi (-'Juda.B caput," Tac. Hil. ii, 79). It was in tlili Inb-rval that the city waa built by Herod the Great (JoMphus, Anl. xv, 0, G; Strabo, xvi, 3, 27; Pliny, //. ff. V, lo). The worit was, in fact, accim- pUshed In ten years. Tho utmost care and eupcDso were lavished on the building of Ctesarea. It nus a pnrod monument of the rei^ of Herod, who named it in honor of the Empeior Augustus. The full name was Ctoarea S/Amlr. {Kmnapiia Ht/Jnirrq, Joaenb. Anf. xvi, 5, 1). It waa aometimes called Ciaarra S'raloiM, and sometimes also (ftrmi its poailion) Uari/imt CiTKirta (rapnXint, Joseph, ifur, iii, 0, 1, or q iri SaXnrrp. tA. vli, 1, 8). The ma'inilicenco of Civwrea is descrilied indctiil by Josephua in two places (i4 at. xv, D; War, i, 31). The chief features were connected with the harbor (itself called Tiiintrrlt Xiph'-, on coins and by Jeaephus, Ant. xvii, 6, 1), which waa equal in ^iie lo the Pirteua of Athens. The whole coast of Palestine may be aatd to be extremely inhospitable, exposed as it is to the fury of [he western storme, with no natural port aRbrding ade<|aale shelter to the vessels resortini; to it. To remedy Ihia dpfect, Herod, who, though an arbitrary tyrant, did much for the improvement of Ju- da», set about erecting, at immense cost and labor, one of the most stupendous works of anllc|uily. He threw out a seniicircular mole, which protected the
s C^ESAEEA
I port of Craarea on the soulfa and west, leaving only ■ ' suSlcient opening fur vesseU to enwi frum the north ; I so that, within the enclosed apace, a Beet might tide at all weathers in perfect security. Thia breakwater was constructed of immense blocks of atone lirooght jfto.n a great distance, and sunk to the depth of 3<J fatb- I oiiis in tlie Mj. Jdroad lundin^-whurves sumiunded the harlior, and conspicuous from the sea waa a tern- '■ pie dedicated to CBsar and to Rume, and conlaininx , coliissal alatuea of the emperor and the imperiul city. I Besides this, Herod added a theatre and an aoipbitlie- atre; and, when the whole was finished, he lixed hia residence there, and thus elevated tlie city to the rank of Che civil and military capital of Judna, which r>nk it coutinned to enjiiy as long as ttio country remained a province of the Roman empire (see Dr. Hansford, Script. OatetiiKr). VeFpsalan wus first declared em- peror at Cnsurca, and he railed it to the lank of a Ri>. man "colony"(<l. vOi granting It, lirst, exemption tiaa the capitatiun tax, and afterward From Ihe ground tax- es (tho reul jui ICitliciBn). The place was. however. Inhabited chiefly by Gentiles, though some Ihoosanda of JewBlivcd>nit(JaMph. trnr, iii, 9, 1; iii. 14; Ant. IX, 8. 7; L/r, 11). U eoeins there waa a sUnding dixpute between the Jewish and Gentile inhabitiDta ofCiBsarealo which of them the city really belonred. The former claimed it as having been buiH Uy a Jew, moaning King lierod; the Utter admitted this, but contended Chat he built II for them, and not fbr Jews, seeing that he had filled it with statues and temples of their gods, which tho Utter abominated (Joseph. War, ii, 13, T). TUs quarrel sometimes came to blow^ and eventually the matter was retferred to the Emperor Nero, whose deciHOn in favnr of the Gentiles, and the Irobjvior of the latter thereupon, gave deep offence to tho Jews (pn«r,illy, and afforded occasion for the H™t outl>reaks, which led to the war with the Romans (Jo- srph. War, ii, 14). One of the tint sets of that war was the massacre of all the Jewish inhabilania by the (»«ntilea to the number of 30,000 (». 11. 16, 1>. Thie city was the head-<(uarterB of one of the Koman co- horts (q. v.) in Palestine.
t;<rfn of Cawres Paleallic, Cnsarea is (he sceno of several interesting circnm. atancea descrilied in the New Toatsmcnt, such aa the conveminn c.f Cornelius, the first-fnilts of the Gentiles (AcU x); the residence of Philip the Evangelist (Acts xxi, S). It WHS here also, in the amphitheatre built bv his gmndfotiier, that Herod At(ri|ipa was smitten of Godanddied (Acta xii, 21-28). From hence the apojtlo Paul tailed to Tarsus when forced to leave Jerusalem on his return from Damascus (ix, 30), and al this port he landed after his aecond missionary journey (xvili, 92). He also spent some time at CieSBrra on his re- turn from the third missionary Joomey (xxl, S, Ifi), and liefore lon« wee brought liack a prisoner to tho same place (xiiii, 23. S3), where be remained soma lime in bonds before his voyage to Italy (xxv, 1, 4, 8, IS). After Ihe destruction of Jerusalem, Casarea lieeame the spiritual metropolis of all Palesline; but,
was divided into three provinces. Palcftina Prima, So. cunda, and Tertla, it became the capiul of only the first province, and subordinate to the bishopric of Je. russlem, which was elevated Into a patriarchate witb the righla of primaci' over "Ihe three Palestine*."

Around thla source are many hewn atouea. In Ihe face of the cliff, directly over tbe cavern and in other jiarta, aeveral niches have lecn cut, apparently to re- ceive sUluee. Each if these nichra had once an in- scription ; and one of thrm, copied by Burckhardt, ac- pears to have been a dedication ly a priest ol Pan.

Cai'Bphaa (KaVd^Ci perhaps from the Chald. KC^, JtpnuKm), called by JasephQi iAnl. xTiii, S, t> Jateph Ciaapkai ('Iwniiroc, u mi Kaiii^c), was U|cb-{irie*t of the Jews in the reitrn of Tiberius Ciesar, at the beginning of our Lord's public mlDlstry (Luke iii, S), A. [>. ii, and also at the time of his cundemna- tkiu BOd cmciGiion (Uatt zxvi, 3, GT ; John xl, 49 ; itEi, IB, H, M, SS ; Acts iv, S), A.D. 89. The Pro- taralflr Valerius Gnitas, shortly before bis leaving the pmviBre (A.D. Ki), apfniutedhlui to the dignity, which was before held by Simon ben-Camilh. He' held it daring the whole procuratonbip of Pontlos Pilate, but «na after hia removal from that olfice »aa deposed by the PiDcoiuid Vltelllu* (A.D. 86), and succeeded by Janithan, sun of Aaanus (Joeeph. A»>. xvlil, 4, 8). Some in the ancient Church cunfounded him with the ktstcaian Joaephus, and believed him to have become > convert to Christijuity (Assemani, BiUiolk. Oritnl. ii, lU). Hi) wife was the daUKfater of Annas, or Ana- UBS, who liad formerly been high-prieet, and who still paestsiud great influence and contniMn saoerdotal mat- ten, aeveral of hia family sncceiislvely holding the Ugh-|Kitettiood. The names of Annas and C^aphas . ue coupled by Luke, " Annsa and Caiaphss being the Ugh-piasta;" and thi* haa given nrcailon to no small amount of diacussion. Some maintain thut Annas and CalaphM then discharKed the fDnrtions of the hiuh- (rieathoDd by turns : bat thii is nxt reconcilsble with ihs ttatanrat of Josephus. Others think that Cala- pha* is caBtd hlgb-pnest, because he then actually ei. RciiHl the function* of the office, and that Annas is » (aUed because he had formerly KUed the situation. But It dMB not thus appear why, of tbon who held
I the high-prieatbood before Calaphai, Annas In path I ticular sbonld be named, and not Ishnuol, Ellaaer, or Simon, who had all served the office mora recently than Annas. Hence KuinOl and others consider it I aa the more probable opinion that Caiaphae was the hlgh-prieat, but that Annas was his vicar or deputy, called in the Hebrew ^3D, lagaa. Sot can that office be thought unworthy of a man who had filled the pon- tifical office, since the dignity of sagan was also great. , Thus, for instance, on urgent occasions ha might even enter the Holy of lloUes (Ligbtfoot, Bar. Hd>. ad Luc. iii, !). Nor ought it to seem strange or unusual that the vicar of a hl^'h-pricst should be called by thst name. For if, as it appears, those who had once held the office were aflrr by courtesy called higb-priesta, with greater justice might Annas, whu was both a pon- liticai person and high-priest'i vicar, be so called. In fact, the very appellation of high-prieit is given to a sagan by Josephus (,A»t. xvif, 6, 4). (See the oom- mentators on Luke iii, % particularly Hammond, Ught- foot,Kufnfil,andBloom(iehl.)

The wouderful miracle of raising Laiarua from the dead couvincedmunyofthe Jews that Christ was sent from God; and the chief prteats and the Pharisees, alarmed at the increase of his followerii, summoned a council, and pretended that their liberties were in dan-
and that their destruction was inevitsble if somelhtaj' were notdone at once to check his progress. Caiaphas was a member of the council, and expressed his deci- ded opinion in favor of putting Jesus to death, as tbe only way of saving the nadon from the evils which hia success would bring upon them. His language was, "Ye know nothing at all; nor consider that it ia expedient for ua that ono man ahooid die for the peo- ple, and that the whole nation perish not" (John xi, 49). This counsel was wicked and nnjaat in the high- eat degree; but as there was no offence charged, It seemed the only plausible excuse for putting Christ to death. Tbe high-priest's language on this occasion waa prophetic, though be did not intend it ao. Tbe cvan,;elisl^ bi giving an account of this extraordinary occurrence, enlarges on the prophetic language of the higb-priest, and shows the extent and blessedness of tbodLipensatlonormercythAiugb Jesus Christ Koth. ing of this, however, was In the mind of the cruel end bigoted hlgh-prieat. ' After Christ was arrested, he

This expedient failed j for though two persons appeared to testify, they diif not agree, and at last Caiapbaa pot our Savlonr him- self upon oath that he should say whether he waa in- deed the Christ, tbe Son of God, or not. The answer was, of course. In the affirmative (q. v.), and waa ac- compenied with a dedaiaWon of fals Dlvbe power and majesty. The high-priest pretended to be great- ly grieved at what he considered tbe blasphemy (q. v.) of our Saviour's pretensions, and forthwith appealed to his enraged enemies to say if this was not enough. They answered at once that he deserved to die, and then, in tbe very presence of Caiaphas, and irithoul any retctraint tram him, they felt upon their guiltless victim with insults and Injuries. As Caiaphas had no power to inflict the punishment of death, Christ was Ukrn from hfan to Pilate, the Roman govrmor, that his execution mlifht be duly ordered (Matt, xxvl, 3, 6Ti John xviii, IS, SS). The bigoted furyof Caiaphas Fxhihiied itself alto egsinittbe first efforts of the apos- tles (Acts Iv, 6).

(i.) Tbe " mark set upon Cain" has given rise to virioas specnlatlena. many of which would never have been limached if the Helirew leit had l<em confulted ; tbe words probably mean that Jelnvah gave a li^ la Cain, very mnch as signs were afterward given to Noah (Gen. is, IS), Ho^ (Exod. Iii, 3, 12). Elijah (1 Kings xix, 11), and Heiekiab (Isa. xxsvili, 7, 8). Whether the stgn was perceptllile to Cain alone, and given to Urn nnoe for all. in token tbat no man should kill him, or whether it was one tbst was perceptible to otliers, aad designed as a precaution to them, as is implied in tbe A. V. il oncertajn ; tbe nuture of the sign itself Ii still man onceitain (but see above). (See Kraft, De 8!gao Cami, in his Oba. Saer. i, B.) See Mark.
(3.) Tbe narrative implies the eiiatenee of a con- siderabk population in Cain's time : for he fears lest be sboald be murdered in return for the murder he had committed (ver. U). Joerphns (A ttl. i, 2, 1) explains bis fears aa •rising, not from men, but from wild beasts ; but locb an explanaliDn is wholly tuoecessaiy, The

mnst evidently have been one of his sisters (comp. "Bona and di>ngbten<," Gen. v, 4). Tndition eatls her aave (Epipbsn. Hirr. xxix. 6) or Atura (Uablaa, p. 2); the Arabs call Cblnbimaelf Kahl by allller«ticn with tbe name of his Lrothcr (D'Herbelot, Bill. Or. a. v. Cabil). See Adah.
(4.) The character of Cain deserves a fuller notice. He is described as a man of a morose, malicious, and revengeful ten'per; atid that be presented his offering in this state of luind is implied in the rebuke contain- ed in Gen. iv, 7, iihich mny be rendered thus: "If thou doeat well (or, aa the Sept. has it, tiy 'pfui' wpoaiviyt^), la there not nn elevation (rKI^) [of the countenance] (i. e. perhaps c Acrr/Wnrti baihojpiafa)?
fmtmrt], sin lurketb (as a wild beast) at Uie door, and to thee is its deeiro; but thou abalt rule over it." (So Geaenius and others; but see above.) Tie namtive implies therefore thut bis ofl'ering was rejected on ao couHl of the temper In which it waa brought (Sticht, De tuU-iqaw Dei ann Cmi-; Alt. 1766). See Abei.
(S.) Tbe dcecendanla of Cain are ennmented to the ti' th grnention. Some commentators (Knobel, Von Bohlen) have traced an artificial structure in this gen- eulogy. I y which It is rendered parallel to that of the Setbites ; e. r. tbtre is a decade of names In each, com- mencini' with Adam tnd ending with Jubal and Koi.h. tbe deficiency of generatii.ns in tbe Cainilcs being lup. plied Ly the addition if tlie two younger sons uf Lu- metb totbelistj andthercis a considereble aimilsrily in the names, each list containing a Lameeh and i.n I'nmh, while Cain in the ine-CainHin in the other. Methuinel-Melhureltb, and Mcbajsel-MabaUleel: tho inference frnm this comparifon teing that the one was frinied out of the other. It must be observed, however, that tbe differences fir rxceed the [ointa of similarity ; that the order of tbe names, the numiier of generations, and even the meanings of those ntalrh are noticed aa similjr in lound. are sufficiently distinct CO remove tbe impression of artidc!..] conatruclion. (See Bochart, Hierot. i, 587.) See pATniARChi.
(G.) Tbe social condition of the Csinites is promi- nently brought forwanl in tbe hi<tnry. Cain himaclf waa an arricultnrist, Abel a shepherd : the succewera of the latter are represented ly the Kethiles and the progenitors of the Hebrew race In later times, snong whom a pastoral life w; s always held in high honor from the simplicity ind devotional bal.its which It en- fnndered : the succesFon of tbe former are depicted as tho reverse in all these respects. Csin founded the first citr : Lameeh instituted polygamy ; Jalisl intro- duced the nomadic life; Jobal Invented mnsical in- atruments; Tubal-cain was the llrst smith; Limrch's binguagB takes the ataUly tone of poetry; and even ' the nsmea of tbe women, Naamah {pltatant), Zillali ' (sia/ov). Adah (onamtninD, seem to bespeak an ad- vanced stote of civilizal'ion. But, along with thit^. there waa violence and godleasness i Catn and Lameeh furnish proof of the (brmer, while tbe concluding word a of Gen. iv.M, imply the latter. See Antei>it.<7VIAMI.
(7.) The contrast established between tbe Cainites and the Setbitea appejra to have reference solely to the pocisl and religions condition i>f tlietno races. On tbe one aide then is pictured a high state of clviliia-

The rabbinical tisdition was that he first intniduced Idol-worship and astrology — a tradition which the Hellenists transferred to the post- diluvian Calnan. Thua Ephraem-Sj-njs asserts that tbe Chaldees in the time of Terah and Abram womhip- ped B graven god called Cainan; and Gregory Bai- Hehrcus, another Syriac author, also applies it to the son of Aiphaxad (Mill.

See CiinoFOLOoT. Some have sug^-csted that the Jews purpoaelyexclndedtbe second Cslnan from their copies, with the dcaign of rendering the Septuagint and Luke suapectod; others that Hoaea omitted Cli' nan, being deeirous of reckoning ten generations only from Adam to Noah, and from Koah to Alraham. Some suipoacthatArphaindwiiafathcrorCainEn and Sulab — of Salah naturally, and of Cainan Icg-.tly; while others allege that Cainan and Salah were the same person under two namea. It ia believed Ly many, however, that tbe name of this second Cainan waa not originally in the text oven of Lake, bnt is an addition of inadvertent tranacriben, who, remarkln;r It in srma copies of tbe Septua^nt, added it (Kuinol, ad Ijk. ill, S6) Halea, though, as an advocate ofthe longer chronology, prediipoeed to ita retention, decides that wn are (ully warranted to conclude that the rtcond Cainan was not originally in the Hebrew text, at leart, nor in the Septuagint and other vernons derived from it (CinmoIrOT, I, ^91)- Some of the grounds for tbU conclusion are, 1. Ihat tbe Hebrew and SamariUn, with all tbe ancient vcralons and targums, concur in the omisrion; !. Ihat the Septnagint is not consiftent with itself; for in tbe repetition of genealogies in 1 ChroD i, S4, it omits Cainan and atnes with the Ho- brew text ; 8. That the second Cainan i* silently re- jected by Josepbus, by Pbllo. by John of Antiocb, and by Eusebiua; and that, while OrU-cn ntaincd the name itself, he, in his copy ofthe Septuagint, marked itwith an obeiiakaa an unauthorlied reading. It cer- tainly was not contained in any copies of the Bible
I which Berosus, Eupolcmus, Polyblator, Theopbilua of Aniioch, JuUug Afrlcanna, or even Jerome, had accesa to. Moreover, it seeoia that the intrusion of the name even into the Sept. ia comparatively modem, since Au-
I gaatlDo la the Hrat writer who mentions It a* fbund in the O. T. at all. Demetrius (B.C. 170), quoted by Eu- sebius (Pmp. Cwmj. ix, 21), reckons 1360 years from the birth of Shcm to Jacob's going down to Eg}-pt,
in tbe great fluctuation of the numbera in tbe ages of the patriarchs, no reliance can be placed on this argu- ment. Nor have we any certainty that the flgurrs have not l-een altered in tbe modem copies of Eusebi- us. to make them agree with the ccmpatation of the altered coi^s of tbe Sept. 4. That the numbers indi- cating the longevity and paternity of this (atriarch are evidently borrowed horn those immodiately adjrdn- ing, aa is tbe name itself from that of tbe antediluvian ' patriarch.

' was the form muallT given to Oriental broiid (2 Sam.
' vi, 19: I Kings xvii, Vl). See Imat. They were leavened or nnieavened. They also offered cakea in the Temple made of wheat or of barlev, kneaded some- times with oil and aometimea with honer. For the purpoeaa of offering, Ilieee cakes were ulted, but un. leavened (Exod. xxiK, i ; L«r. ii, 4). In Jer. vii, 18; xliv, 19, we read of tbe Hebrews kneading their dough ■' to make cakes to the queen of heaven" [see Abhto- rbth}. which appears to have been, f^m aorly times, an idolatrooa pructice, and was also tbe custom of the Greeks and Unmans.

The import of this Isst, from the etymology, ia very uncertain (aee ROdiger, De. in'erpnl. ArtA. libr. hilt. p. 94; Thenios on Sam. xiii, 6; Geaenius, Tir,. p. Hi). It was pmb- ably a kind of fancy cake, the makingof which appear* to have been a rare accaniplishment, since Tamar was required to prepare it for Ammou in bis pretended ill- ness (! Sam. xiii, 6).
(8.) Holt-caka, ri^n, duitkth' (! Sam. vl, 19), which were mingled with oil (',':?:9 nib^^a, see BUir, BsiaboL ii, 801), and baked in tbe oven (Lev. ii, 4).

His early education, both religious and academical, was veiy carefully conducted, and ho (fraduated with hon- or at Bowdnin College in ir " became principal of the H Readfleld. In IP34 ho was elected rrofessor of Mathe- matics and Vice-presidrnt of Dickinson College, Pa. In 18S7 he was transferred to tbe chair of Metaphyslo and English Literature, which he occupied daring tha rest of his nfe. He soon became known as a strong thinker and excellent writer bv bis elaborate contribu- tions to the Mtlhodiit QuarieHg Rniea. Nor did his devotion to Uteratnre prevent him tmm taking an in- terest in the moral questions of the times; and in the cause of temperance especially his labors were abun- dantandeven excessive. In 1846 he visited England as a delegau to the "World's Convention." which formed the " Evangelical Alliance," and took an active part in its proceedings.

announced to the congregation by Hoaea that, fbr this rebellious niur.nurin^, .11 that had been namber*d from twenty years old and upward, except Joataua and Cale^, should parish in the wildemeea, a special prom- ise waa made to Ihe latter that he should survive to ea- ter into the land which ha luul trodden upon, and that his seed should posseis il. Accordingly, forty-Evp years afterward (It.C. IGl:), nben some progrrm bad ■■sen made in the cnnHUot of the land, Caleh came lo Joshua and reminded bim of what had happened at Kadesh, and of the promise uhich Hoaes nude to him Kilh tn oath. He addoil that though he was now ei^hty-Ave years old (hence he was ijom B.C. Ifi9fl), he waa as strong as in the day when tlosea rent him to spy out the bnd, and he claimed possession of the land of Ihe An^kim, Kiijatb-Arlia. or Uet ron, and tht ndgbhoring bJII-coontry (Joeh. xiv). Ibis was im- mediately granted lo him, and the foUowing chapter rrlates that he took possession of Heliron, driving out the three aons of Anak ; that ha offered Achsah, his dau htiT,inmBrTiage(romp.lSam.ivii,S6; Hvgin, /"oi. 07) to whoevpT would take Kir^th-Sepher, i. c. Debir; and that when Othniel, hia younger tirotber, had performed the feat, he not only gave bim his daughter to wife, but with her the npper and Detbrr springt of water wbieb she ashed fi>r. After this we hear no tnore of Caleb, nor is the t^me of his death re- corded. But we learn frrm Josh. xxi. lit, that, in the diMrlbntion of cities out of Ihe different Iribea for thr priests and Levitea to dwell in, Hebron fell to the priests, the children of Aamn, of the ft-mily of the Ko- hathites, and was also a city of rehigr, while the anr- rounding territory continued to be tlie pMsesiuon nf Caleb, at least aa late aa the time of David (1 Sam.

1. The most ancient End remarkable notice in the Scripture* on thb head is that of tbe Folden caifuhich was cart \.j Aaron while the Israelites were encamped at the foot of Sinai. In Eiod. xxxii, 4, we are told that Aaron, constrained by the penple, in the absence of Moses, made a molten calf of Ihe golden ear-rings of ibe people, to represent the Elchim which I ronght Israel out of Egypt. He b also said to have "finished It with a graving-tooi ;'■ but the word C^n, the'nl, may mean a mould (comp. S Kings v, SB, Auth. Vera. "bags;" Sept. duXanoii-). BocbaH {Hitrot. lib. li, cap. xxxlv) explains It to mean, "he placed the esr^

ear-rings would hove provided the i tity of gold required for a inlid figure. More prob ably it was a wooden figure laminated with gold, a process which <s known to have existed In E^'pt. " A gililnl o^ covered with a pall" was an emUem of Osiris (WilkineoD, iv, S3G). See Gold.

The legends abont the calf are nnmeTDus. Tbe luggestlon is said by the Jevi to have originated with certain Egyptian prooeiytea (Godwyn'a Mot. and Aar, tv, 6) ; Hut, "the desert's martyr," was killed for op- posing it; Abulfeda says that all except 12,000 wor- shipped it; when made, it waa magically anliDated (Exod. iiiii, 24). ■' Tbe devil," says Jonathan, " i^-ot Into Ibe meul and fashioned it into a calf" (Liirhtfoot, Workt, V, 898). Ueoco the Koran (vli, 146) calls it "a corporeal calf, made of their omamenia, vhirh lotmt," Ibia waa elTected, not by Aaron (according lo the Uo- hammedans), but by al-Sameri, a chief Israelite, whose descendants still inhabit an island of the Arabian Gulf. He took a handful of dust from tbe footsteps ot the horse of Gabriel, who lode at tbe bead of tbe boat, and threw it into tbe month of the c«If, which Immediately began to low. No one ia to be punished In hell more than forty days, being the number of days of tbe calf-worship (Sale's Koran, ed. Davenport, p. 7, note; and *ee Weil's Legtndi, p. 123). It was a Jewish proverb that " no punishment befalletb tbe fa- raelites in which there Is not an ounce of this calf" (Godwj'n, w ivp.). See Aaron.
2. The next notice refers to an event which occur. red ages after, wben Jeroboam, king of Israel, return- ing from his long exile In Fgypt, set up two Idols In tbe form of a calf, the one in Dan (comp. Josepbus, War, iv, i, 1) and the other in Bethel, the two ex-
rvsorting lo Jerusalem to worship, and so more elTect- nally to separate them Tiom tbe bouse of Uavld. Tem- ples were built and altan erected for thew Images; priest* were appointed from all tbe tribes without dis- tinction, and Ibo priestly functions performed even by the monarch himself. The calves continued to he a snare lo the people of Israel until the captivity. The calf at Dan was carried away by Tlglath-t^leser, and that of Belhcl ten yeara after by his son Shalraaneaer (1 Kings XI, 29; xvii, 13; Prideaux, Comtctim, i, l.'i). Jeroboam's sin is always mentioned whenever his name is used (1 Kin^B xi, 40; xii, 26-83; !Cbron. xi, 1&; Has. viii, b, 6; x, 5; xili, 2). See Jebo-
Bochart thinks that the ridiculous story of Crlsns about the Cbristian worship of an ass-hnuled deity (called Bapa0aii8 q 'Oi'i^*— a sinry at the aource of which Tertnllian. 'Ovoeoinjc, Ajyil. 1«; Ad Xnl. i, U. could only guc's) sprang from some mlsondertlandlng ofiuch emblems as the golden calf (MInuc, Fv\. Ap'it. ix). But it Is much more probable, as Origvn conjec- tured, that tbe Christians wers confounded with the absurd mysUc Opiuam, or Ophite Gnostics i^Tacitus,

Theory of Hit Idabary.—Thia almost tncomprehensi- ble dcgradalion of bunun reason was, more particularly in the first instiince, nndonbtthe result of the delnsinif inflnences which operated on the minds of tbe Israel- itea during their so>>um in Egypt, where, amid the d.illy practice of Ihe moat degrading and revolting re- " ' ceremonies, they were accustomed to see tbe if a sacred calf, aornunded by cither symbols, carried In solemn pomp at tbe bead of marching armies, such aa may still be seen defdcted In llie prooeaaions of Eameses llie Great oi Scaostrls. Tbe accompaay-
Anehnl l':CTI'Uin Udf-IdoL Ingflgttre is arepresenlBtionof a calf-idol, copied fhnn the ori,jInal collection made by the artists of the French Institute of Cairo. It Is recumbent, with hn- man eyes, the skin flesh-colored, and tbe whole after- parta covered with a white and sky-blue diapered dra- pery; the horns are not on tbe bead, but above It, and contain within them the symbolical globe sarmonnted by two feathers. Upon the neck is a blus and yellow yoke, and the Hagellam, of various colors, is suspend- ed over the back; the whole is fixed upon a broad stand fbr carrying, as here shown. Tbe rendering of the Aath. Vers., which alludea to the Image being fln- isbed with a gravlng-tool. Is obviously correct, for all tbe lines and toolings of tbe covering cloth, of tbe eyes, and of the feathers most have required that man- ual operation (Exod. xxxii, 4). It Is dnnl>tful wheth- er this idolatrous form is either Apia or Mnevis; it may

probably, be a symbol known to the Egyp> tians by an undedphered designation, and certainly ondentood by tbe Edomites of later ages, who called it bakaud and khantf, or tbe calf, tbe mysterious oii- na miiwli; according lo Von Hammer (Pref. to A^ ciml^/piaifUXtbeNabalhian secret of secrets, or tbe beginning and return of every thing.

At Ibe time ofthe departure of the Israelitea fhmi Egypt this may have been the Moloch of their nelghbora, for that idol was figured with the head of a calf or steer. A simi- lar divinity belonged to the earUest Indian, Greek, and even Scandinavian mythologies, and therefore it may be conceived that the symljol, enduring even to this day, waa at that period generally understood by ^e multitude, and consequently tbat it was afterward re- vived by Jembnam without popular opposition.

a. Some regard the golden calf both of Aaron and Jeroboam as Intended by the Jews for an Egyptian (rod. Tbe arguments for this view are, 1. The ready apostasy of the Jews to Egi'ptlan superstition (Acts vii, B9, and chap, v, pasnim; UctanL InM. Iv, 10). 2.

On his return to Germany in Iftn he was appointed divinity professor M Helmstidt. The thesis of his iniu ,-ural waa that kinj^oma and states onnut safely eoexist with the religion of Tupists or Jesuits. Fur nearly half a century he led a life ofnn- wejried literary activity at Helmatadl. Peaceful him- peir, the aim of hie studies and oaorta was tn settle the disputes of the ChrislJan pirties, and It led him into endless controversies. Though a Lutheran all hia life, his tendencies wero Mel-incthonian, both by nature and education. " He had adopleil the opinion of the peace- makers and RjmonstTjnts that the essential doctrines of Christianity were held by all the churches, and de- sired to propigate thii opinion, and lolringtlie adher- ents of all the churches to some nearer understand- ing." Ha wrote against all exebu'V* claims in any of the churches. Against Rome he wrote De Pimiif. ,tfi-«MB Sacrifido (Francf. 16H); and numerous other puhlicstions to the same end followed it.

His Hist publications trave umbrage to the Btrict Lutherans, who regarded him as lax in theology. In 1G19 he published bis EjHomt Throl-g'/r, which was warmly welcomed by his friends, but awak- ened new opponents amrm^ the rigidly orlhodoT. Ha applied Aristmlc's philosophy to theolos?', dividing the aclence Into three hearts: "(1) the objeet, man's beat (mod, including hollne«tt, immortality, etc. ; (2) thetub- jiet, God, creation, apoitasy, etc. ; (3) the rarinw, erace, redemption, tha sacrnments, etc. He also, in bis Epil. Thtolngiic Mornlii (1634), separated theolu -y fnim ethics, giving the latter the form of an independ- ent science. On this Dr. Pusey remarks, in bis Timi- ngs n/arTma»s. p. 04, that "the separation hy Cnlixlua of the system of 'Christian moral' from 'Christian doctrine,' with which It had been hitherto interwoTrn, Ihongb in itself greatly to the advantage of the unity

The scriptural argument! for and against the doc- trine are thus aUtad by Watson :
1. According to the CBlviniadc view, "In the gold- en chain of sphilual bleulnga which the apoatle enu. meralea in Bom. vlii, Bll, orl. inating In the divine pre- deetlnation, and terminating in tbe bestowment of eternal glory on tbe heirs of xalvation, that of calling forma an important link. ' Moreover, whom he did predestinate, them he also called ; and whom he call- ed, tbem be alto gloiifled.' Hence we read of 'tbe called according to hla purpoae,' Rom. viii, 28. Then la indeed a univerul call uf the Gospel to all men ; fbr wherever it come* It ia the voice of God to those who bear it, calling them to repent and lielieve the divine taalimDuy unto the avlrution of their rouls; and it leaves them laexcusable in rejecting it (John 111, 14- 19); but this univeraal call is not insaparubly connect- ed with salvation; for it la in reference lo it that Christ says, 'Many are called, bat few are cboaen' (Ustt. xxii, U). But the Scripture also apeaka of a calling which is effectual, and which conseqaently is more than the ontward ministry of the Word; yea, more than some of lis partial and temporary eflbcts upon many who hear it, Rir it Is always ascribed to God'a making hb arotd al^tual through the enUithtening and sanc- tifying inflnences of bia Holy Spirit. Thus it la Bald, ' Paul may plant, and Apollos water, but God gtveth the increase' (1 Cor. til, 6. 7). Again, Ha ia said lo have ' opened the heart of I.ydia, that ahe attended to tbe doctrine of Paul' (Aru xvi, 14). ' Ko man can come unto Christ, except tbe Father draw faim' (John Ti, 44). Hence faith ia said to be the gift of God lEph. ii, 8; Pbll. i, 39). The Spirit takea of tho tilings of Christ and shows them to men (John xvi, 14), and tbua <q>ena tbeir eyes, turning them from darkness to lUbt. and fh m tbe power of SaUn unto Cod (Acts xxvl, la). And so God saves his people, notl.ywotka of righlaouaneee which they have done, but according to hia mercy, by the washing of regenrri-tion and re- newing of tho Holy Spirit (Tifua iii, S). Thus they are aaved, and called wllh a holy calling, not accord- inw to tbeir work*, hut according to tbe divine purpnre and RTace which was civen them In Chiiet Jesus be- fore tbe world began (2 Tim. 1, S).
"!. To thia it is replied that this whole statement respecting a l>ellever'a calling ia without any snpport from the ScHpturri. 'To call' signifies to invite to the bleaaings of the Goapel, lo offer ralvation through Christ, either by God himself, or, under his appoint. ment, by his servants ; and in tbe paraljle of tlie mar- riage of the king's son (Matt, xxii. 1-14), which ap- pears to have given rise.

We have nothing here to counter nance the notion of what li termed 'eff^ctaal calling.' Tfaii Implias an irreaiitilile Influence sxert«l upon all the approved Kneata, but withheld Troni the diaobe- dient, who could not, therefore, be otherwise than dis- obedient, or, at moat, could only come In without that wedding Kanneat.«hich it was never pot Into their power to take oat of tbc king's wardrobe, and the want of which would necesserllj exclude them, if not ttom the Church on earth, yet fn.m the Church in tieaven. The doctrine of Christ's paraUIci is in rntire contradiction to this notion of Irresititilile inflaence; fi>r they who refused and they who complied but par- tially with the callhig are n^tesented, not mrrely as being left without the benefit of the frsst, but aa in- clining additional guilt and condemnation for refusing the invitation. It is to this ofl«r of salvation by the QoFpel, tbia invitation to spiritual and eternal brnefita, that St, Peter appears l« refer when he sayi, ' For the prmniie is unto you and to yonr children, and to all that mn afar off, even aa many aa tiM Lord onr God rball eaW (Acts U, 89); a passage wbicb declares 'the promise' to be as exl«iuive aa the 'calling,' in other words, as the offrr or invitstion. To this also i t. Taul refers (Rom. i, 6, 6), ' By whom we have r»- calved grace and apoBtleiblp, fi>r obedience to the faith rmong all nations, for his name;' that la, to publish bis GoBpel, in order to bring all nations to (be cbe- dirnce of faith; 'among whom ye are aire the caOid of Jeaua Chrlit;' you at Kome have heard the Gospel, and have been invited to salvslion In conrequence of tliis design. This promnlgitlon of the Gospel, by the perronal ministry cf the afostle, under the name of caU'vg, ia airo referred to in Gal. 1, It, ' I marvel that ye are so aeon removed ttotn him that calltdj/oii into the grace of Cbritt,' obviously meaning tbat it was be himself who had called them, by bis preaching, to cm- brace the grace of Christ. Eo also in chap, v, IS, 'For, brelhren, ye have been ealird unto lilenv.' Again (1 Theaa. ii, 12). ' Tbsl j-. wonid «alk wcrthy of God, who bath (ntfed you,' invited you, 'to hiskJog- dom and glory.'
"8. In onr Lord'* parable it will alao be o1 served that the peraona called are not invited as separata In- dividuals to partake of aolitary lilesfinps; but they ■re called to 'a feait,' Into a company or tociely, be- fore whom the lanquf t ia apnad. The full revciatlon of the transfer of the visible Church of Chrift IVcm Jews ly l.trtb to believcra of ail nationr, waa not, hnw- evcT, then made. When Ihii Irsnch of the evangelic syatem waa fully revraled to the apostle >, and taught ly them to otheri, that part of the meaning of our Lnrd'a parable which waa not at flrat developed waa mnre particularly diccovrred to lilt inspired filloirers. The catling ofguests to the evangelical feait, we then more fully learn, was not the mere railing of men to partake of ainritual benrAta, l.ut calling them alfo la form a spiritual society composed of Jews and Gentiles, the believing men of all nations, to have a comir.on fellowship in there hlee^oga, and to be formed into this fellowship for the purpose of inrreating their num- tier, and dlffualng the tenef.ta of salvation among the people or nation to which they respectively l*iorgcd. The Invitation, 'the calling,' of the lirst preachers kcb to all who heaid them in Rome, In EptarFUn, in Corinth, and other places; and those who enil raced it, and Joined themsekea to the Church by faith, I aptirm. ard continued pullic fmfcEtion. were named, iFpeciallr
and eminently, 'the called,' because of their obedtance to the invitation. They not only pnt In their claim to the hlea^n^a of Christianity individually, but be- came memtiers of the new Church, that spltitnal aoei- ety of believers which God now visibly owned aa his people. As they were thus called into a common M- lowahlp by the Goapel, this ia sometimes termed tbeb 'vocation;' aa the olijact of this Church state was to promote ' holinesa,' It is termed a ' holy vocation ;' u sanctity waa requlrvd of the members, they were said Uk have been 'calledto be saints;' asthe final result waa, through ths mercy of Gnd, to be eternal life, we hoar of 'the hope of their calling,' and of their being 'call- ~ to his alamal glory by Chrlat Jenu.'
These views will abundantly explain the vb-
of the
in which the term ctiliag occun epiatlea; 'Even na whom he hath ca'lrd, nol Jewa only, hut tin of the Gentiles' (Rom. in, n); that is, whom ho hath made meml)eni of hla Church through fulth.
