That agent, force, or action in nature by the operation of             which upon the organs of sight, objects are rendered             visible or luminous.          Note: Light was regarded formerly as consisting of material                particles, or corpuscules, sent off in all directions                from luminous bodies, and traversing space, in right                lines, with the known velocity of about 186,300 miles                per second; but it is now generally understood to                consist, not in any actual transmission of particles or                substance, but in the propagation of vibrations or                undulations in a subtile, elastic medium, or ether,                assumed to pervade all space, and to be thus set in                vibratory motion by the action of luminous bodies, as                the atmosphere is by sonorous bodies. This view of the                nature of light is known as the undulatory or wave                theory; the other, advocated by Newton (but long since                abandoned), as the corpuscular, emission, or Newtonian                theory. A more recent theory makes light to consist in                electrical oscillations, and is known as the                electro-magnetic theory of light.          2. That which furnishes, or is a source of, light, as the             sun, a star, a candle, a lighthouse, etc.                         Then he called for a light, and sprang in. --Acts                                                                               xvi. 29.                         And God made two great lights; the greater light to                      rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the                      night.                                                --Gen. i. 16.          3.

The brightness of the eye or eyes.                         He seemed to find his way without his eyes; For out                      o' door he went without their helps, And, to the                      last, bended their light on me.         --Shak.          5. The medium through which light is admitted, as a window,             or window pane; a skylight; in architecture, one of the             compartments of a window made by a mullion or mullions.                         There were windows in three rows, and light was                      against light in three ranks.            --I Kings                                                                               vii.4.          6.

Term \Term\, n. [F. terme, L. termen, -inis, terminus, a       boundary limit, end; akin to Gr. [?], [?]. See {Thrum} a       tuft, and cf. {Terminus}, {Determine}, {Exterminate}.]       1. That which limits the extent of anything; limit;             extremity; bound; boundary.                         Corruption is a reciprocal to generation, and they                      two are as nature's two terms, or boundaries.                                                                               --Bacon.          2. The time for which anything lasts; any limited time; as, a             term of five years; the term of life.          3. In universities, schools, etc., a definite continuous             period during which instruction is regularly given to             students; as, the school year is divided into three terms.          4. (Geom.) A point, line, or superficies, that limits; as, a             line is the term of a superficies, and a superficies is             the term of a solid.          5. (Law) A fixed period of time; a prescribed duration; as:             (a) The limitation of an estate; or rather, the whole time                   for which an estate is granted, as for the term of a                   life or lives, or for a term of years.             (b) A space of time granted to a debtor for discharging                   his obligation.             (c) The time in which a court is held or is open for the                   trial of causes. --Bouvier.          Note: In England, there were formerly four terms in the year,                during which the superior courts were open: Hilary                term, beginning on the 11th and ending on the 31st of                January; Easter term, beginning on the 15th of April,                and ending on the 8th of May; Trinity term, beginning                on the 22d day of May, and ending on the 12th of June;                Michaelmas term, beginning on the 2d and ending on the                25th day of November. The rest of the year was called                vacation. But this division has been practically                abolished by the Judicature Acts of 1873, 1875, which                provide for the more convenient arrangement of the                terms and vacations. In the United States, the terms to                be observed by the tribunals of justice are prescribed                by the statutes of Congress and of the several States.          6. (Logic) The subject or the predicate of a proposition; one             of the three component parts of a syllogism, each one of             which is used twice.                         The subject and predicate of a proposition are,                      after Aristotle, together called its terms or                      extremes.                                          --Sir W.                                                                               Hamilton.          Note: The predicate of the conclusion is called the major                term, because it is the most general, and the subject                of the conclusion is called the minor term, because it                is less general. These are called the extermes; and the                third term, introduced as a common measure between                them, is called the mean or middle term. Thus in the                following syllogism, -- Every vegetable is combustible;                Every tree is a vegetable; Therefore every tree is                combustible, - combustible, the predicate of the                conclusion, is the major term; tree is the minor term;                vegetable is the middle term.          7. A word or expression; specifically, one that has a             precisely limited meaning in certain relations and uses,             or is peculiar to a science, art, profession, or the like;             as, a technical term. [bd]Terms quaint of law.[b8]             --Chaucer.                         In painting, the greatest beauties can not always be                      expressed for want of terms.               --Dryden.          8. (Arch.) A quadrangular pillar, adorned on the top with the             figure of a head, as of a man, woman, or satyr; -- called             also {terminal figure}. See {Terminus}, n., 2 and 3.          Note: The pillar part frequently tapers downward, or is                narrowest at the base. Terms rudely carved were                formerly used for landmarks or boundaries. --Gwilt.          9. (Alg.) A member of a compound quantity; as, a or b in a +             b; ab or cd in ab - cd.          10. pl. (Med.) The menses.          11. pl. (Law) Propositions or promises, as in contracts,             which, when assented to or accepted by another, settle             the contract and bind the parties; conditions.          12. (Law) In Scotland, the time fixed for the payment of             rents.          Note: Terms legal and conventional in Scotland correspond to                quarter days in England and Ireland. There are two                legal terms -- Whitsunday, May 15, and Martinmas, Nov.                11; and two conventional terms -- Candlemas, Feb. 2,                and Lammas day, Aug. 1. --Mozley & W.          13. (Naut.) A piece of carved work placed under each end of             the taffrail. --J. Knowels.          {In term}, in set terms; in formal phrase. [Obs.]                         I can not speak in term.                     --Chaucer.          {Term fee} (Law)             (a), a fee by the term, chargeable to a suitor, or by law                   fixed and taxable in the costs of a cause for each or                   any term it is in court.          {Terms of a proportion} (Math.), the four members of which it             is composed.          {To bring to terms}, to compel (one) to agree, assent, or             submit; to force (one) to come to terms.          {To make terms}, to come to terms; to make an agreement: to             agree.          Syn: Limit; bound; boundary; condition; stipulation; word;                expression.          Usage: {Term}, {Word}. These are more frequently interchanged                   than almost any other vocables that occur of the                   language. There is, however, a difference between them                   which is worthy of being kept in mind. Word is                   generic; it denotes an utterance which represents or                   expresses our thoughts and feelings. Term originally                   denoted one of the two essential members of a                   proposition in logic, and hence signifies a word of                   specific meaning, and applicable to a definite class                   of objects. Thus, we may speak of a scientific or a                   technical term, and of stating things in distinct                   terms. Thus we say, [bd]the term minister literally                   denotes servant;[b8] [bd]an exact definition of terms                   is essential to clearness of thought;[b8] [bd]no term                   of reproach can sufficiently express my                   indignation;[b8] [bd]every art has its peculiar and                   distinctive terms,[b8] etc. So also we say, [bd]purity                   of style depends on the choice of words, and precision                   of style on a clear understanding of the terms                   used.[b8] Term is chiefly applied to verbs, nouns, and                   adjectives, these being capable of standing as terms                   in a logical proposition; while prepositions and                   conjunctions, which can never be so employed, are                   rarely spoken of as terms, but simply as words.

Gangway \Gang"way`\, n. [See {Gang}, v. i.]       1. A passage or way into or out of any inclosed place; esp.,             a temporary way of access formed of planks.          2.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Tabernacle       (1.) A house or dwelling-place (Job 5:24; 18:6, etc.).                (2.) A portable shrine (comp. Acts 19:24) containing the image       of Moloch (Amos 5:26; marg. and R.V., "Siccuth").                (3.) The human body (2 Cor. 5:1, 4); a tent, as opposed to a       permanent dwelling.                (4.) The sacred tent (Heb. mishkan, "the dwelling-place"); the       movable tent-temple which Moses erected for the service of God,       according to the "pattern" which God himself showed to him on       the mount (Ex. 25:9; Heb. 8:5). It is called "the tabernacle of       the congregation," rather "of meeting", i.e., where God promised       to meet with Israel (Ex. 29:42); the "tabernacle of the       testimony" (Ex. 38:21; Num. 1:50), which does not, however,       designate the whole structure, but only the enclosure which       contained the "ark of the testimony" (Ex. 25:16, 22; Num. 9:15);       the "tabernacle of witness" (Num. 17:8); the "house of the Lord"       (Deut. 23:18); the "temple of the Lord" (Josh. 6:24); a       "sanctuary" (Ex. 25:8).                A particular account of the materials which the people       provided for the erection and of the building itself is recorded       in Ex. 25-40. The execution of the plan mysteriously given to       Moses was intrusted to Bezaleel and Aholiab, who were specially       endowed with wisdom and artistic skill, probably gained in       Egypt, for this purpose (Ex. 35:30-35). The people provided       materials for the tabernacle so abundantly that Moses was under       the necessity of restraining them (36:6). These stores, from       which they so liberally contributed for this purpose, must have       consisted in a great part of the gifts which the Egyptians so       readily bestowed on them on the eve of the Exodus (12:35, 36).                The tabernacle was a rectangular enclosure, in length about 45       feet (i.e., reckoning a cubit at 18 inches) and in breadth and       height about 15. Its two sides and its western end were made of       boards of acacia wood, placed on end, resting in sockets of       brass, the eastern end being left open (Ex. 26:22). This       framework was covered with four coverings, the first of linen,       in which figures of the symbolic cherubim were wrought with       needlework in blue and purple and scarlet threads, and probably       also with threads of gold (Ex. 26:1-6; 36:8-13). Above this was       a second covering of twelve curtains of black goats'-hair cloth,       reaching down on the outside almost to the ground (Ex. 26:7-11).       The third covering was of rams' skins dyed red, and the fourth       was of badgers' skins (Heb. tahash, i.e., the dugong, a species       of seal), Ex. 25:5; 26:14; 35:7, 23; 36:19; 39:34.                Internally it was divided by a veil into two chambers, the       exterior of which was called the holy place, also "the       sanctuary" (Heb. 9:2) and the "first tabernacle" (6); and the       interior, the holy of holies, "the holy place," "the Holiest,"       the "second tabernacle" (Ex. 28:29; Heb. 9:3, 7). The veil       separating these two chambers was a double curtain of the finest       workmanship, which was never passed except by the high priest       once a year, on the great Day of Atonement. The holy place was       separated from the outer court which enclosed the tabernacle by       a curtain, which hung over the six pillars which stood at the       east end of the tabernacle, and by which it was entered.                The order as well as the typical character of the services of       the tabernacle are recorded in Heb. 9; 10:19-22.                The holy of holies, a cube of 10 cubits, contained the "ark of       the testimony", i.e., the oblong chest containing the two tables       of stone, the pot of manna, and Aaron's rod that budded.                The holy place was the western and larger chamber of the       tabernacle. Here were placed the table for the shewbread, the       golden candlestick, and the golden altar of incense.                Round about the tabernacle was a court, enclosed by curtains       hung upon sixty pillars (Ex. 27:9-18). This court was 150 feet       long and 75 feet broad. Within it were placed the altar of burnt       offering, which measured 7 1/2 feet in length and breadth and 4       1/2 feet high, with horns at the four corners, and the laver of       brass (Ex. 30:18), which stood between the altar and the       tabernacle.                The whole tabernacle was completed in seven months. On the       first day of the first month of the second year after the       Exodus, it was formally set up, and the cloud of the divine       presence descended on it (Ex. 39:22-43; 40:1-38). It cost 29       talents 730 shekels of gold, 100 talents 1,775 shekels of       silver, 70 talents 2,400 shekels of brass (Ex. 38:24-31).                The tabernacle was so constructed that it could easily be       taken down and conveyed from place to place during the       wanderings in the wilderness. The first encampment of the       Israelites after crossing the Jordan was at Gilgal, and there       the tabernacle remained for seven years (Josh. 4:19). It was       afterwards removed to Shiloh (Josh. 18:1), where it remained       during the time of the Judges, till the days of Eli, when the       ark, having been carried out into the camp when the Israelites       were at war with the Philistines, was taken by the enemy (1 Sam.       4), and was never afterwards restored to its place in the       tabernacle. The old tabernacle erected by Moses in the       wilderness was transferred to Nob (1 Sam. 21:1), and after the       destruction of that city by Saul (22:9; 1 Chr. 16:39, 40), to       Gibeon. It is mentioned for the last time in 1 Chr. 21:29. A new       tabernacle was erected by David at Jerusalem (2 Sam. 6:17; 1       Chr. 16:1), and the ark was brought from Perez-uzzah and       deposited in it (2 Sam. 6:8-17; 2 Chr. 1:4).                The word thus rendered ('ohel) in Ex. 33:7 denotes simply a       tent, probably Moses' own tent, for the tabernacle was not yet       erected.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Tabernacles, Feast of       the third of the great annual festivals of the Jews (Lev.       23:33-43). It is also called the "feast of ingathering" (Ex.       23:16; Deut. 16:13). It was celebrated immediately after the       harvest, in the month Tisri, and the celebration lasted for       eight days (Lev. 23:33-43). During that period the people left       their homes and lived in booths formed of the branches of trees.       The sacrifices offered at this time are mentioned in Num.       29:13-38. It was at the time of this feast that Solomon's temple       was dedicated (1 Kings 8:2). Mention is made of it after the       return from the Captivity. This feast was designed (1) to be a       memorial of the wilderness wanderings, when the people dwelt in       booths (Lev. 23:43), and (2) to be a harvest thanksgiving (Neh.       8:9-18). The Jews, at a later time, introduced two appendages to       the original festival, viz., (1) that of drawing water from the       Pool of Siloam, and pouring it upon the altar (John 7:2, 37), as       a memorial of the water from the rock in Horeb; and (2) of       lighting the lamps at night, a memorial of the pillar of fire by       night during their wanderings.                "The feast of Tabernacles, the harvest festival of the Jewish       Church, was the most popular and important festival after the       Captivity. At Jerusalem it was a gala day. It was to the autumn       pilgrims, who arrived on the 14th (of the month Tisri, the feast       beginning on the 15th) day, like entrance into a silvan city.       Roofs and courtyards, streets and squares, roads and gardens,       were green with boughs of citron and myrtle, palm and willow.       The booths recalled the pilgrimage through the wilderness. The       ingathering of fruits prophesied of the spiritual harvest.",       Valling's Jesus Christ, p. 133.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Taverns, The three       a place on the great "Appian Way," about 11 miles from Rome,       designed for the reception of travellers, as the name indicates.       Here Paul, on his way to Rome, was met by a band of Roman       Christians (Acts 28:15). The "Tres Tabernae was the first mansio       or mutatio, that is, halting-place for relays, from Rome, or the       last on the way to the city. At this point three roads run into       the Via Appia, that from Tusculum, that from Alba Longa, and       that from Antium; so necessarily here would be a halting-place,       which took its name from the three shops there, the general       store, the blacksmith's, and the refreshment-house...Tres       Tabernae is translated as Three Taverns, but it more correctly       means three shops" (Forbes's Footsteps of St. Paul, p.20).
