Carefully. — In the sense of anxiously, c. occurs only Mic 1" 'the inliabitant of Maroth waited c. for good ' (n^n, lit. ' has been in pain,' RV ' waiteth anxiously '). In tlie sense of attentively, there are in A V Dt 15' ' if thou c. hearken ' (i'lcy'-cx V?v'B, ' if hearkening thou shalt hearken,' RV 'if thou shalt diligently hearken,' as AV in 11" 28', same Heb.) ; Wis \2^ ' we should c. think of thy goodness ' nepifi.vQp.ev, RV ' ponder ') ; Ph 2^ ' I sent nim the more c' {irirovdaioT^pus, RV ' the more diligently ') ; He 12" ' he sought it c. with tears ' (^Kfip-^ui, RV 'sought it diligently'). To these RV adds Mt Z'-" (d«cp./3Au, AV 'diligently'), 28 (dicpi/Sus AV 'diligently'), Ac 18=» (iKpi^us, AV ' dUigenUy ') 18=« (d^pi/Sut A V ' perfectly ') and He
12" ' Looking c' {iTnaKoiroOi'Tct, AV ' looking dili' gently ').
Carefulness, in the sense of anxiety, is given in AV (as tr. of n;»!i) Ezk 12i8- '» ; to which RV adds 4" (AV 'care'), Jos 22=* (AV 'fear'). In the same sense is Sir 30=* ' c. bringeth age before the time ' (piipip-va., RV ' care ') ; and 1 Co 7'= ' I would have you without c' (d^pi/ivoj, RV ' free from cares '). Cf. Latimer, Ser. i. 413, ' Consider the remedy against carefulness, which is to trust in God.' But the sense of watchful and helpful interest is clear in 2 Co 7" ' what c. it wrought in you ' (aronSri, RV ' earnest care ') ; for the same apostle commends c. in this passage, who had condenmed it in the previous.
Careless and Carelessly have always the mean- ing of without trouble or anxiety, in security (the Heb. being always na? 'to trust,' or ncs 'con- fidence'); 'careless' .Ig 18', Is 32'-'- «'• ", Ezk 30» (but RV adds Pr 19" Heb. .iiS 'a despiser') ; 'care- lessly ' Is 47*, Ezk 39», Zeph 2'». Cf.—

CAEIA (Kap(a) is actually mentioned only in 1 Mac 15=^ as one of the places to which the Rom. Senate sent a circular letter in B.C. 139-138 in favour of the Jews. The political entity which is here meant was probably the Chrysaorian con- federacy, in which most of the cities (esp. the inland cities) of C. were united, meeting at the temple of Zeus Chrysaoreus at Stratonicea. C, most of which belonged to the Rhodians from 190 to 168, was then declared free by the Romans ; and this confederacy was the responsible government until 129, when the country was incorporated in the province of Asia. The coast cities of C. were chiefly Greek, and did not belong to the confederacy: of these Miletus was Ionian ; Cnidus, Cos, and Halicarnassus were Dorian : hence the Rom. Senate sent their letter about the .lews (see Delus) to the Dorian cities, Cnidus, Halicarnassus, Cos, and also to Rhodes and Myndus (which seem to be nearly the complete list of Carian governments).

CARITES (11) occurs in the Ke.thibh of the Heb. text and margin of RV in 2 S 20^, where the Keri has Cherethitcs (""13), and in RV of 2 K 11*, where the AV has capfnins (RVm executioners). The Carites were possibly Phil, mercenaries from Caria, as the Cherethites were from Crete. See Chere- THITES, and cf. W. R. Smith, OTJC 262 n.

CARMEL (Vs-ij 'garden'), Jos'lS^*, 1 S 15" 252. 7. « 2 S 23»,' i Ch 11".— A city of Judah in the Hebron mountains, where Saul set up a ' hand ' or memorial stone, and where Nalial li\'ea in possession of flocks. One of David's heroes was a Carmelite. Now the ruined town Kumiul, on the hills about 10 miles S.E. of Hebron, chiefly remarkable for the remains of a large square tower, built in the 12th cent. A.D., and for a very fine large reservoir. See SVVP vol. iii. sheet xxiv. C. R. Conder.

tni range of the conntir, bat ia separated from the latter by hills of softer formation, which are therefore more worn than itself, and now lie lower and are opened up by passes. The promontoiy of Carmel rises above a narrow sea-beach to a height of Bome 500 ft. at the monastery ; thence the ridge, running S. E. , ascends (FEF Large Map, sheets V. and viii.) 9i miles to Eslia (1742 ft.), and then sinks for 3^ miles more to its end at El- Mahraka ( 1GS7 ft. ) ; beyond which there is a sudden dip into the Wady el-Milh, a valley that separates Carmel from the lower hills aforc-said, the Beldd er-Kuhah. The ridge is well-detined, and in shape a wedge, with the thin end seaward, in breadth from plain to plain 1^ miles, but at the thick or inland end as much as 8J miles broad. The sides are very dill'ereutly disposed. The S.W. sinks slowly by ion" ridges and glens upon the plain of Sharon ; the N.E. is abrupt and steep above the plains of Haifa and Esdraelon. At tne foot of the latter runs Kishon, for the most part parallel to the axis of the mountain. The limestone of C. abounds in flints, 'geodes' (known as 'Elijah's melons'), and fossils ; and on the N . E. igneous rocks crop out from a basalt formation that extends to the Sea of Galilee (Ritter, Pal. 712, 713). There are very many caves.
