From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Carmel
      a park; generally with the article, "the park." (1.) A prominent
      headland of Central Palestine, consisting of several connected
      hills extending from the plain of Esdraelon to the sea, a
      distance of some 12 miles or more. At the east end, in its
      highest part, it is 1,728 feet high, and at the west end it
      forms a promontory to the bay of Acre about 600 feet above the
      sea. It lay within the tribe of Asher. It was here, at the east
      end of the ridge, at a place called el-Mukhrakah (i.e., the
      place of burning), that Elijah brought back the people to their
      allegiance to God, and slew the prophets of Baal (1 Kings 18).
      Here were consumed the "fifties" of the royal guard; and here
      also Elisha received the visit of the bereaved mother whose son
      was restored by him to life (2 Kings 4:25-37). "No mountain in
      or around Palestine retains its ancient beauty so much as
      Carmel. Two or three villages and some scattered cottages are
      found on it; its groves are few but luxuriant; it is no place
      for crags and precipices or rocks of wild goats; but its surface
      is covered with a rich and constant verdure." "The whole
      mountain-side is dressed with blossom, and flowering shrubs, and
      fragrant herbs." The western extremity of the ridge is, however,
      more rocky and bleak than the eastern. The head of the bride in
      Cant. 7:5 is compared to Carmel. It is ranked with Bashan on
      account of its rich pastures (Isa. 33:9; Jer. 50:19; Amos 1:2).
      The whole ridge is deeply furrowed with rocky ravines filled
      with dense jungle. There are many caves in its sides, which at
      one time were inhabited by swarms of monks. These caves are
      referred to in Amos 9:3. To them Elijah and Elisha often
      resorted (1 Kings 18:19, 42; 2 Kings 2:25). On its north-west
      summit there is an ancient establishment of Carmelite monks.
      Vineyards have recently been planted on the mount by the German
      colonists of Haifa. The modern Arabic name of the mount is
      Kurmul, but more commonly Jebel Mar Elyas, i.e., Mount St.
      Elias, from the Convent of Elias.
     
         (2.) A town in the hill country of Judah (Josh. 15:55), the
      residence of Nabal (1 Sam. 25:2, 5, 7, 40), and the native place
      of Abigail, who became David's wife (1 Sam. 27:3). Here king
      Uzziah had his vineyards (2 Chr. 26:10). The ruins of this town
      still remain under the name of Kurmul, about 10 miles
      south-south-east of Hebron, close to those of Maon.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Carnal
      Unconverted men are so called (1 Cor. 3:3). They are represented
      as of a "carnal mind, which is enmity against God" (Rom. 8:6,
      7). Enjoyments that minister to the wants and desires of man's
      animal nature are so called (Rom. 15:27; 1 Cor. 9:11). The
      ceremonial of the Mosaic law is spoken of as "carnal," because
      it related to things outward, the bodies of men and of animals,
      and the purification of the flesh (Heb. 7:16; 9:10). The weapons
      of Christian warfare are "not carnal", that is, they are not of
      man's device, nor are wielded by human power (2 Cor. 10:4).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Chronology
      is the arrangement of facts and events in the order of time. The
      writers of the Bible themselves do not adopt any standard era
      according to which they date events. Sometimes the years are
      reckoned, e.g., from the time of the Exodus (Num. 1:1; 33:38; 1
      Kings 6:1), and sometimes from the accession of kings (1 Kings
      15:1, 9, 25, 33, etc.), and sometimes again from the return from
      Exile (Ezra 3:8).
     
         Hence in constructing a system of Biblecal chronology, the
      plan has been adopted of reckoning the years from the ages of
      the patriarchs before the birth of their first-born sons for the
      period from the Creation to Abraham. After this period other
      data are to be taken into account in determining the relative
      sequence of events.
     
         As to the patriarchal period, there are three principal
      systems of chronology: (1) that of the Hebrew text, (2) that of
      the Septuagint version, and (3) that of the Samaritan
      Pentateuch, as seen in the scheme on the opposite page.
     
         The Samaritan and the Septuagint have considerably modified
      the Hebrew chronology. This modification some regard as having
      been wilfully made, and to be rejected. The same system of
      variations is observed in the chronology of the period between
      the Flood and Abraham. Thus:
     
            |                                       Hebrew Septuigant   Samaritan
     
            | From the birth of
     
            |   Arphaxad, 2 years
     
            |   after the Flood, to
     
            |   the birth of Terah.      220         1000            870
     
            | From the birth of
     
            |   Terah to the birth
     
            |   of Abraham.                  130            70            72
     
         The Septuagint fixes on seventy years as the age of Terah at
      the birth of Abraham, from Gen. 11:26; but a comparison of Gen.
      11:32 and Acts 7:4 with Gen. 12:4 shows that when Terah died, at
      the age of two hundred and five years, Abraham was seventy-five
      years, and hence Terah must have been one hundred and thirty
      years when Abraham was born. Thus, including the two years from
      the Flood to the birth of Arphaxad, the period from the Flood to
      the birth of Abraham was three hundred and fifty-two years.
     
         The next period is from the birth of Abraham to the Exodus.
      This, according to the Hebrew, extends to five hundred and five
      years. The difficulty here is as to the four hundred and thirty
      years mentioned Ex. 12:40, 41; Gal. 3:17. These years are
      regarded by some as dating from the covenant with Abraham (Gen.
      15), which was entered into soon after his sojourn in Egypt;
      others, with more probability, reckon these years from Jacob's
      going down into Egypt. (See {EXODUS}.)
     
         In modern times the systems of Biblical chronology that have
      been adopted are chiefly those of Ussher and Hales. The former
      follows the Hebrew, and the latter the Septuagint mainly.
      Archbishop Ussher's (died 1656) system is called the short
      chronology. It is that given on the margin of the Authorized
      Version, but is really of no authority, and is quite uncertain.
     
            |                                    Ussher   Hales
     
            |                                       B.C.      B.C.
     
            | Creation                        4004      5411
     
            | Flood                              2348      3155
     
            | Abram leaves Haran         1921      2078
     
            | Exodus                           1491      1648
     
            | Destruction of the
     
            |   Temple                           588         586
     
         To show at a glance the different ideas of the date of the
      creation, it may be interesting to note the following: From
      Creation to 1894.
     
         According to Ussher, 5,898; Hales, 7,305; Zunz (Hebrew
      reckoning), 5,882; Septuagint (Perowne), 7,305; Rabbinical,
      5,654; Panodorus, 7,387; Anianus, 7,395; Constantinopolitan,
      7,403; Eusebius, 7,093; Scaliger, 5,844; Dionysius (from whom we
      take our Christian era), 7,388; Maximus, 7,395; Syncellus and
      Theophanes, 7,395; Julius Africanus, 7,395; Jackson, 7,320.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Cornelius
      a centurion whose history is narrated in Acts 10. He was a
      "devout man," and like the centurion of Capernaum, believed in
      the God of Israel. His residence at Caesrea probably brought him
      into contact with Jews who communicated to him their
      expectations regarding the Messiah; and thus he was prepared to
      welcome the message Peter brought him. He became the first fruit
      of the Gentile world to Christ. He and his family were baptized
      and admitted into the Christian church (Acts 10:1, 44-48). (See {CENTURION}.)
