1828 Definition

CORBAN, n. [L. G., a wicker basket.]

1. In Jewish antiquity, an offering which had life; an animal offered to God; in opposition to the mincha, which was an offering without life.

It is a gift, corban, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; that is, I have devoted that to God which you ask of me, and it is no longer mine to give.

2. An alms-basket; a vessel to receive gifts of charity; a gift; an alms; a treasury of the church, where offerings are deposited.

3. Among Mohammedans, a ceremony performed at the foot of mount Arrarat in Arabia, near Mecca. It consists in killing the number of sheep, and distributing them among the poor.

Corban (corban)
n.(kôr"b1913 webster dictionaryn)
Cor"ban
[Heb. qorb1913 webster dictionaryn, akin to Ar. qurb1913 webster dictionaryn.]
  1. An offering of any kind, devoted to God and therefore not to be appropriated to any other use; esp., an offering in fulfillment of a vow.

    * In the old Testament the hebrew word is usually translated "oblation" as in Numb. xviii. 9, xxxi. 50.

    * The traditionists laid down that a man might interdict himself by vow, not only from using for himself, but from giving to another, or receiving from him, some particular object, whether of food or any other kind. A person might thus exempt himself from assisting parents in distress, under plea of corban. Dr. W. Smith.

  2. An alms basket; a vessel to receive gifts of charity; a treasury of the church, where offerings are deposited.

Noah Says...
No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.
