KAIAPHAS (Καϊάφας). Greek
form of biblical Caiaphas
(q.v.), from Aramaic Kaiapha
(q.v.), meaning "depression."
... I was
talking, the other day, with my friend Joseph Kaiaphas, who is at
present the chief priest, having been appointed to that office, as you
perhaps know, by the procurator Valerius Gratus. Kaiaphas
is, however, hardly more than the nominal high priest, his father Annas
having the real power, which by long usage has collected in his hands...—"Letter of Joseph Ben
Tabbai." (The Life
and Times of Jesus, as Related by Thomas Didymus, Clarke, 1891).
