Bishop Of Kilmore (Church Of Ireland)
The Bishop of Kilmore is an episcopal title which takes its name after the parish of Kilmore, County Cavan in Ireland. In the Roman Catholic Church it remains a separate title, but in the Church of Ireland it has been united with other bishoprics. History The see of Kilmore was originally known as Breifne (Latin: ''Tirbrunensis'', ''Tybruinensis'' or ''Triburnia''; Irish: ''Tír mBriúin'', meaning "the land of the descendants of Brian", one of the kings of Connaught) and took its name after the Kingdom of Breifne., ''Handbook of British Chronology'', p. 362.

Irish Language
Irish ( Standard Irish: ), also known as Gaelic, is a Goidelic language of the Insular Celtic branch of the Celtic language family, which is a part of the Indo-European language family. Irish is indigenous to the island of Ireland and was the population's first language until the 19th century, when English gradually became dominant, particularly in the last decades of the century.

Cathedra
A ''cathedra'' is the raised throne of a bishop in the early Christian basilica. When used with this meaning, it may also be called the bishop's throne. With time, the related term ''cathedral'' became synonymous with the "seat", or principal church, of a bishopric. The word in modern languages derives from a normal Greek word καθέδρα 'kathédra'' meaning "seat", with no special religious connotations, and the Latin ''cathedra'', specifically a chair with arms. It is a symbol of the bishop's teaching authority in the Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church, and the Anglican Communion churches. Etymology The English word "cathedra", plural cathedrae, comes from the Latin word for "armchair", itself derived from the Greek. After the 4th century, the term's Roman connotations of authority reserved for the Emperor were adopted by bishops. It is closely related to the etymology of the word chair. ''Cathedrae apostolorum'' The term appears in early Christian literature in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Kilmore Cathedral
St Fethlimidh's Cathedral, Kilmore is one of two cathedral churches in the Diocese of Kilmore, Elphin and Ardagh (along with St John the Baptist Cathedral, Sligo) in the Church of Ireland. It is situated in the parish of Kilmore, southwest of the county town of Cavan. Design The cathedral stands on an elevated wooded site adjacent to Lough Oughter. It features a Twelfth century Gaelic Irish Romanesque doorway (c1170), incongruously set into a chancel north wall, employed as a vestry door. Its origins are unclear, as it had been part of the wall of the earlier cathedral since the 18th century (which became a parish hall). The Romanesque doorway probably was taken from the now demolished Drumlane St.Mary Augustinian priory. However, local belief suggest that the doorway possibly came from the nearby Trinity Island priory church (c 1250). The cathedral possesses an original copy of the first translation of the Old Testament into Irish by William Bedell, Bishop of Kilmore from 1629 ...
