ULPHILAS.
A Latinized form of Gothic Vulfila
(q.v.), meaning "wolf." (History of Christian Names,
Yonge, 1884).
... In the year 318 the Gothic
bishop and translator of Scripture, Ulphilas, was born. He
succeeded Theophilus as bishop of the Goths in 348, when he subscribed a
confession rejecting the orthodox creed of Nicæa; through him it is
said that the Goths in general adopted Arianism; it may be, however,
more correct to consider that Arianism (or Semi-Arianism) had already
spread amongst the Greeks and Latins. (A Dictionary of the
Bible, Smith, 1893)
