Cethuberis was a virgin whom Joceline (Life of St. Patrick, c. 79) thus calls, and afterwards (c. 188), Ethembria; and whose name assumes a great multiplicity of forms, as Ceatsamaria, Cectumbria, and perhaps Edhmair, etc. She is said to have been the first who received the veil in Ireland from St. Patrick, at her monastery of Druim Duchain, near Clogher, and is supposed by some to be the "una benedicta Scotta" alluded to in St. Patrick's confession, and by others to be St. Cinna (Feb. 1).
The Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological, and Ecclesiastical Literature was edited by John McClintock and James Strong. It contains nearly 50,000 articles pertaining to Biblical and other religious literature, people, creeds, etc. It is a fantastic research tool for broad Christian study.
John McClintock was born October 27, 1814 in Philadelphia to Irish immigrants, John and Martha McClintock. He began as a clerk in his father's store, and then became a bookkeeper in the Methodist Book Concern in New York. Here he converted to Methodism and considered joining the ministry. McClintock entered the University of Pennsylvania in 1832 and graduated with high honors three years later. Subsequently, he was awarded a doctorate of divinity degree from the same institution in 1848.WikipediaRead More
