CORPSE, from Lat. corpus, is in earliest Eng. a 500 CORRECT, CORRECTION COS body, living or dead, and is so found as late as 1707. Hence 'dead corpses,' 2 K 193» = Is 37^, as in Fuller, Holy War, iv. 27, 'the cruditie of a dead corpse.' RV retains ' dead corpses' because of the Heb. (O'TO onj?) of which it is a literal translation. J. Hastings. CORRECT, CORRECTION Both vb. and subst.

are used in the (nearly) obsol. sense of chastise- ment, and it is doubtful if in any other. Thus Jer 10^ ' O Lord, correct me, but with jud<rment ; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing ' ; and Sir IG"" ' As his mercy is great, so is his cor- rection also ' (Aeyxos)- In Job 37" the Heb. is 'a rod ' (Bag) as it is tr" in 21'. The Heb., however, is generally ipiD mUsAr (or vb. ip;), a word very characteristic of Pr, in AV most freq.

tr'' ' instruc- tion,' but KV prefers 'correction, though not consistently. In He 12' iratJewijs is tr^ by a verb, AV ' which corrected us,' RV ' to chasten us ' (as the vb. -raticiu is tr in v.") ; but the same word is rendered in Ro 2" AV ' an instructor,' RV ' a corrector.' In 2 Ti 3" Scripture is said to be pro- fitable for 'correction.' The Eng. word prob. means ' chastening ' (if not ' chastisement,' Wyclif has ' to chastise '), and this is prob. the meaning of the Gr.

ivavbpBwats, which occurs only here in NT, though in the classics it ia common for ' amend- ment.' J. Hastings.
