ETHOPIA paints the disposition of the mind, whether it be permanent, or more specially belong to the thing and case for the time being, in the manner in which we are wont to discover it for the most part by outward signs, as by the expression of countenance, the voice, the gesture, the clothing, etc.-Luk 18:9, etc.; there is here an ETHOPIA in the parable of the Pharisee and publican. See GLASSIUS Phil. S. L. V. Tract. ii. ch. vii. p. 2043.-1Pe 3:3, The apostle, wishing to advise women that they should show the disposition of the mind in the external costume, depicts the very kinds of womans costume.
