[99] 1 Sam. xxvii, 11 f.; Ezek. xxxii, 17 f.; Isa. xiv, 9 f.
Eccl. iii, 19 f., ix, 5, 6, 10, which are sometimes cited in
support of the opposite opinion, belong not to the Jewish
popular belief, but to a late academic system which is
colored by Greek skeptical philosophy. All other late Jewish
books (Apocrypha, New Testament, Talmud) assume the
continued existence of the soul in the other world.

[103] Several early Christian writers (Tatian, _Address to
the Greeks_, 13; Justin, _Trypho_, cap. vi) held that souls
are naturally mortal, but these views did not affect the
general Christian position.

[104] Such as Ezek. xviii, 4. This view appears in
_Clementine Homilies_, vii, 1.
