ambo

Borrowed from Late Latin ambō, from Ancient Greek ἄμβων (ámbōn).

The dignity of the Word of God requires that in the church there be a suitable place from which it may be proclaimed and toward which the attention of the faithful naturally turns during the Liturgy of the Word. It is appropriate that generally this place be a stationary ambo and not simply a movable lectern.

2010, General Instruction of the Roman Missal, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, published 2011, section #309:

(Roman Catholicism) A stationary podium used for readings and homilies.

eschaton

Borrowed from Ancient Greek ἔσχατον (éskhaton, “last thing”), from the neuter singular of ἔσχατος (éskhatos, “last”).

bor+

Only in the eschaton will God’s purpose gain its final fulfilment, a fulfilment, be it noted, which may still include some form of movement within a time-series.

1953, F. W. Dillistone, “The Church and Time”, in Scottish Journal of Theology, volume 6, page 163:

And this is also true of the revelation of the eschata: they do not reach us in a discourse about the future still to come, but in an action, in which God has already really begun them in us.

1966 [1962], Karl Rahner, “The Hermeneutics of Eschatological Associations”, in Karl Rahner, translated by Kevin Smyth, Theological Investigations, volume 4, page 336:

Without these sayings, the textual basis for saying Jesus expected an imminent eschaton becomes very slender.

1994, Marcus J. Borg, Jesus in Contemporary Scholarship, →ISBN, page 86:

(Christianity, theology) The apocalypse; the arrival and the era of God’s reign immediately preceding the end of the world; a conception of or circumstance pertaining to this era.

From humanity + -arian (suffix indicating an advocate of or believer in something), possibly modelled after Unitarian (“Christian who does not believe in the doctrine of the Trinity; pertaining to Unitarianism”) (see noun sense 2 and verb sense 2).

suffix

I might further object that ſome Humanitarians would tell you that the doctrine of the atonement is perfectly compatible with the ſimple humanity of Chriſt, ſo that to every perſon of the Humanitarian perſuaſion the former tenet does not appear "mockery and deluſion."

Randolph’s “Scriptural Revision of Socinian Arguments:” […], Trowbridge, Wiltshire: […] Abraham Small, for T[homas] Cadell, […], →OCLC, section IV (Of Your Comments upon the Following Extract from Dr. Priestley’s Letter to Dr. [Richard] Price, Page 45), page 85:

But it will be demanded, how happened it that Irenæus, the pupil of that Polycarp who is repreſented to have been a Humanitarian, ſhould become a zealous advocate for the Deity of Chriſt?

[S]hould any one tell a Humanitarian, that I worſhipped and adored my Saviour, might he not with equal juſtice ſuppoſe me to avow only the ſame ſort of reverence I thought due a parent, or the adoration one profeſſed to pay any beloved object.

It is well understood that most Unitarians, especially those recently educated, are humanitarians. They deny the preexistence of Christ, and regard him as no more than a highly gifted and Divinely inspired prophet, a man.

1829 January, “Introduction”, in The Spirit of the Pilgrims, volume II, number 1, Boston, Mass.: Peirce and Williams, […], →OCLC, page 7:

He [Charles Spear] is not a Trinitarian nor yet a Humanitarian, but seems to favor what is sometimes called the Superangelic scheme. He appears to have shrunk from relying on Jesus as a man, and to have been unable to perceive the strict identity of the Son with the Father, and so gets for a Saviour a being neither God nor man.

A learned bishop (Maret of the General Council) expresses himself with holy indignation in reference to the frightful enormities of the tenth century. This epoch deserves to be designated under the title of the Pornocracy; that is to say, the government of prostitutes, for Theodora, Marozia, and other ladies of rank at that time, placed on the pontifical throne their paramours and their sons, who were no better than themselves.

Merle D’Aubigne, D.D. Paris: Michel Levy, 1870.”, in The British and Foreign Evangelical Review, volume XIX, number LXXIII, London: James Nisbet & Co., Berners Street; Edinburgh: Oliver & Boyd, →OCLC, page 591:

(Roman Catholicism, historical, sometimes capitalized) The period of the papacy known as the saeculum obscūrum (Latin for “dark age”), and also as the “Rule of the Harlots”, which began with the installation of Pope Sergius III in 904 and lasted for sixty years until the death of Pope John XII in 964, during which time the popes were strongly influenced by the Theophylacti, a powerful and corrupt aristocratic family.

hyperdulia

en-noun

hyperdulia (usually uncountable, plural hyperdulias)

/hʌɪpəduːˈlʌɪə/

From Medieval Latin hyperdūlīa, from hyper-, from Ancient Greek ὑπέρ (hupér, “above”) + dūlīa, from Ancient Greek δουλείᾱ (douleíā, “slavery”), from δοῦλος (doûlos, “slave”).

der

By the thirteenth century, the growth of devotion to Mary, the Mother of God, in both East and West led John of Damascus's admirer Thomas Aquinas to formalize a further refinement: the concept of an exceptional sort of veneration, hyperdulia, offered only to the greatest of God's creations, Mary, the mother of Jesus.

2009, Diarmaid MacCulloch, A History of Christianity, Penguin, published 2010, page 451:

(Roman Catholicism) A level of veneration higher than dulia but less than latria, properly given to the Virgin Mary only.

Virgin Mary

en-proper noun

(the) Virgin Mary (plural Virgin Marys or Virgins Mary)

Virgin Marys (plural)
Virgins Mary (plural)

From virgin + Mary, from the belief that Mary was still a virgin when she bore Christ.

They no more supposed that there were as many Jupiters, as images of Jupiter, than the Papists imagine there to be as many Virgins Mary as they have statues and pictures of her.

1819 August, “Religious Retrospect”, in The Antijacobin Review; and Protestant Advocate: or, Monthly Political, and Literary Censor, volume LVI, number 56, London: […] G. Sidney, […]; […] Sherwood, Neely, and Jones, […], page 570:

Now, since there are many ‘sects’ amongst Protestants, and many ‘orders,’ often rival ones, amongst the Roman Catholics, and since there are almost as many Virgins Mary as there are towns who own her sway, so we may expect to find in Palestine many rival ‘orders,’ ‘systems,’ or ‘temples.’

1868, Thomas Inman, Ancient Faiths Embodied in Ancient Names: or an Attempt to Trace the Religious Belief, Sacred Rites, and Holy Emblems of Certain Nations. […], volume I, London, Liverpool: […] the Author, page 348:

One of his tableaux for her entry was designed to illustrate the peace brought by the two Virgins Mary: there was the Annunciation to the Virgin at the top of the pageant, a king and queen seated in the centre with Justice and Truth on either side of them, and at the bottom ‘ung iardin nommé le iardin de france’ containing shepherds and shepherdesses singing.
