The lives of the saints. -- Brande & C. [ 1913 Webster] Hagiographa the holy writings, a term which came early into use in the Christian church to denote the third division of the Old Testament scriptures, called by the Jews Kethubim, i. e., " Writings." It consisted of five books, viz., Job, Proverbs, and Psalms, and the two books of Chronicles. The ancient Jews classified their sacred books as the Law, the Prophets, and the Kethubim, or Writings. ( See { BIBLE}.) In the New Testament ( Luke 24: 44) we find three corresponding divisions, viz., the Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms.
