Bible | Beast This word is used of flocks or herds of grazing animals (Ex. 22:5; Num. 20:4, 8, 11; Ps. 78:48); of beasts of burden (Gen. 45:17); of eatable beasts (Prov. 9:2); and of swift beasts or dromedaries (Isa. 60:6). In the New Testament it is used of a domestic animal as property (Rev. 18:13); as used for food (1 Cor. 15:39), for service (Luke 10:34; Acts 23:24), and for sacrifice (Acts 7:42). When used in contradistinction to man (Ps. 36:6), it denotes a brute creature generally, and when in contradistinction to creeping things (Lev. 11:2-7; 27:26), a four-footed animal. The Mosaic law required that beasts of labour should have rest on the Sabbath (Ex. 20:10; 23:12), and in the Sabbatical year all cattle were allowed to roam about freely, and eat whatever grew in the fields (Ex. 23:11; Lev. 25:7). No animal could be castrated (Lev. 22:24). Animals of different kinds were to be always kept separate (Lev. 19:19; Deut. 22:10). Oxen when used in threshing were not to be prevented from eating what was within their reach (Deut. 25:4; 1 Cor.9:9). This word is used figuratively of an infuriated multitude (1 Cor. 15:32; Acts 19:29; comp. Ps. 22:12, 16; Eccl. 3:18; Isa. 11:6-8), and of wicked men (2 Pet. 2:12). The four beasts of Daniel 7:3, 17, 23 represent four kingdoms or kings. Source: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary. |

Beast, in the English language, is most often used as a synonym for animal.
The Beast is a figure who appears in Christian millennial end times prophecy from the Book of Revelation. Some believe he is synonymous with the Antichrist, while others say the Beast is the Antichrist's independent ally. The Beast is associated with the number 666, the Number of the Beast. The magician Aleister Crowley bestowed this title upon himself as a nickname.
The Beast is a comic book mutant superhero best known as a member of the X-Men and The Avengers, both published by Marvel Comics.

History
The Beast (Hank McCoy) is a comic book superhero. He is a mutant and a member of the X-Men and The Avengers, published by Marvel Comics. He was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, and first appeared in X-Men #1 (1963).
McCoy's mutant body is large and gangly, with oversized limbs, hands and feet, and he is extremely strong. Despite this, he is also extremely agile and coordinated, and can even use his feet as hands. He is also a talented scientist.
As a teenager, McCoy joined Professor Charles Xavier's "school for gifted youngsters", and joined the X-Men, where he was given the code-name The Beast.
Some years later (in Amazing Adventures #11), McCoy left the X-Men and became a research scientist. He attempted to develop a therapy to reduce the freakish aspects of his appearance, but it instead mutated him further, as he grew gray fur all over his body (which later turned blue), as well as elongated canone teeth and enhanced senses. Despite this, McCoy is one of the most upbeat and cheerful of superheroes, although at times acting the role of the "class clown".
Not long after this, he was recruited to join The Avengers, where he remained a member for many years, becoming a close friend of Wonder Man. When the original X-Men formed X-Factor, McCoy left active service in The Avengers and joined that team, later returning to the X-Men, where he remains.
The Beast is occasionally confused with another X-Man, Wolverine, though temperamentally the two could not be more different.

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | TRIAL, n. A formal inquiry designed to prove and put upon record the blameless characters of judges, advocates and jurors. In order to effect this purpose it is necessary to supply a contrast in the person of one who is called the defendant, the prisoner, or the accused. If the contrast is made sufficiently clear this person is made to undergo such an affliction as will give the virtuous gentlemen a comfortable sense of their immunity, added to that of their worth. In our day the accused is usually a human being, or a socialist, but in mediaeval times, animals, fishes, reptiles and insects were brought to trial. A beast that had taken human life, or practiced sorcery, was duly arrested, tried and, if condemned, put to death by the public executioner. Insects ravaging grain fields, orchards or vineyards were cited to appeal by counsel before a civil tribunal, and after testimony, argument and condemnation, if they continued in contumaciam the matter was taken to a high ecclesiastical court, where they were solemnly excommunicated and anathematized. In a street of Toledo, some pigs that had wickedly run between the viceroy's legs, upsetting him, were arrested on a warrant, tried and punished. In Naples and ass was condemned to be burned at the stake, but the sentence appears not to have been executed. D'Addosio relates from the court records many trials of pigs, bulls, horses, cocks, dogs, goats, etc., greatly, it is believed, to the betterment of their conduct and morals. In 1451 a suit was brought against the leeches infesting some ponds about Berne, and the Bishop of Lausanne, instructed by the faculty of Heidelberg University, directed that some of "the aquatic worms" be brought before the local magistracy. This was done and the leeches, both present and absent, were ordered to leave the places that they had infested within three days on pain of incurring "the malediction of God." In the voluminous records of this cause celebre nothing is found to show whether the offenders braved the punishment, or departed forthwith out of that inhospitable jurisdiction. |
