We know what a spirit is not, although we are sure that it exists: we know how to remove from the concept of a being 'spiritual' the ideas of measure and proportion to space, of weight: and subjection to gravity, of colour and reflexlon of rays and energy, of odour and volatility, of different states: gas, liquid, solid, and even of growth, generation or corruption, or of mixture and composition.

But at the very outset I must confess that the choice of the subject of my talk has been very embarrassing, for the subject either happened to be too specialized to arouse general interest, or too scantily attested by the Bible to provide sufficient matter for a conference. After many unsuccessful attempts and especially after reading a paper by Prof. J oh. Hempel, 'Heilung als Symbol und Wirklichkeit im biblischen Schriftum,' published in the T beo- logiscbe Literaturzeitung in 1957 and later, in an expanded form, as a book, I hit upon this subject: 'Disease and Healing in the Bible and their religious significance.' This subject, I dare hope, will strongly appeal to general medical interest and will help to clarify and strengthen your religious convictions.

Sponsus est ex dioecesi A, dum sponsa ex dioecesi B. Ambo sponsi matrimonium celebrare volunt in aequo sanctuario in dioecesi B sito. Huic tamen matrimonio assistit parochus sponsi apud quem ipse sponsus, Antonius, immediate ante celebrationem matrimonii, et quidem coram invitatis, in sanctuario confessionem instituit, in qua confessione se accusat de aborto cum sponsa commisso. Confessione peracta, statim sponsa eiusque mater ad idem confessionale apud eumdem parochum accedit ad confessionem peragendum in qua, inter alia, sponsa et mater dicunt inter sponsos existere impedimentum consanguinitatis in tertio gradu lineae collateralis.
