Subjects in this Topic:
CONSUMPTION.—The Heb. word (kâlâh) which is translated ‘consummation’ in Dan_9:27 is rendered ‘consumption’ in Isa_10:23; Isa_28:22, these Eng. words having then the same meaning. Cf. Foxe, Actes and Mon., ‘Christ shall sit … at the right hand of God till the consumption of the world.’ Consumption occurs also with the same meaning in Isa_10:22 (Heb. killyôn). But in Lev_26:16, Deu_28:22 it is used of a disease of the body. See Medicine.
