Cab pp, kabf a koOow vesMl ; Sept Jca/3o£), a ore for things diy, mentumed in 2 Kings vi^ 26. The nbbins nuke it the sixth part of a asoA (q. ▼.) or «a- twa, and the eighteenth part of an ephah. This wonld be nearly two qmartt FngKsh measnre. See Msasubb.

Cibala, the title of the celebrated system of relig- ions phUosophj, or more propeilj theosophy, which has i^ayed so important a part in the theological and cxegetical literature of both Jews and Christians ever since the Middle Ages. See Philosophy. The fol- lowing account of it is chiefly compiled tnm Kitto's CgekpBBdia and Herzog*s Beal-Enetfkiopddie,

L The Namt, — Kabbala (from the Heb. ^(^Sp, KtHbolak'y the received), properly denotes recepion, then a doctrme received by oral traMon, The term is Ads in itself nearly equiyalent to " transmission/' like the Latin traalUio=Mat9ora, for which last, in- deed, tlie Talmud makes it interchangeable in the ftatement, "Hoses recelTod (^Sp) the Law on Mount Sinai, and transmitted O^?) it\o Joehoa." The dif- fennoe between it, however, and the word n*liD^ (ihin ^^Q, to deUver) is, that the former expresses the act ofreeewmfff while the latter denotes the act ofgiv- kg oner, swrreiidering, trtmtnittmg. The Cabala is also called by some n^P)pd ^?n, secret vntdon^ because it pretends to be a yery ancient and secret tradition, and "j'tl, ^aee, from the initials of these two words.

The term Kabbalah is employed in the Jewish writ- ings to denote several traditional doctrines; as, for example, that which constitnted the creed of the patri- archal age before the giving of the law ; that unwrit- ten ritual interpretation which the Jews believe was rerealed by God to Hoses on the mount, and which was at lei^h committed to writing and formed the Wiksuk, Besides befaig applied to these and other limilar traditiona, it has also been used in, compara- tively speaking, modem times, to denote a singular mpitc mode of interpreting the Old Testament
