^ Plin. xiii. 9. Winer, Bibl. Realworterb. s. v. Gbtteslasterung.
' Selden, De Diis Syr. Syntagni. 2, p. 211. I am aware that nearly all these instances are strongly disputed.
CH. XXII. The Nature of Words. 233 and the impostor Barchocebas ' the son of a star ' was called Barchozibas ' the son of a lie.' 1 Much of this notion respecting the intrinsic significance of names ^ rose from the belief that language was divinely- inspired, and the result of Adam's incomparable wisdom.
According to the
...Cabbalists Adam was taught by the Angel Raziel, and received a celestial alphabet; according to others his teacher was a certain Somboscer. Clemens Alex- andrinus * distinctly attributes his power of naming the ani- mals to a prophetic gift, and St. Chrysostom * took it as a proof of consummate intelligence. The phrase ' that was the name thereof implied, says Eusebius,^ that the name had an intrinsic and natural meaning. ' God called the light day, and the darkness he called night/ says TheO' philus,^ ' since man would not have been able to name these things, nor indeed anything else, if he had not received their designation from the God who created them.' The same views are still held by many, perhaps by the majority.
