A Correction.

By H. G. Buxton

BRO. SMITH: Lest a wrong impression should obtain, I wish to say that in Eld. Wardner's last article in REVIEW, his informer was certainly mistaken in saying that my wife and I had taught that the “soul is nothing but the breath.” I have taught the same as Bro. Cottrell advanced in his article, that the word soul is one of the different definitions of a Hebrew word and a Greek word, and in some instances in Scripture is used as an equivalent for breath. See 1 Kings 17:17, 21. A definition cannot have a definition, but it may have an equivalent. H. G. BUXTON.
