Buttmann, § 139, 30). STRONGS NT 2526: καθολικόςκαθολικός, καθολικη, καθολικον (καθόλου, which see), general, universal (occasionally in secular authors from (Aristotle, and) Polybius down, as καθολικη καί κοινῇ ἱστορία, Polybius 8, 4, 11; often in ecclesiastical writings; the title ἡ καθολικη ἐκκλησία first in Ignatius ad Smyrn. c. 8 [ET] and often in Polycarp, Martyr. (see edition (Gebh. Harn.) Zahn, p. 133 note); cf. καθολικη ἀνάστασις (Justin contra Trypho, 81 under the end); Theophilus ad Autol. (l. i. § 13), p. 40, Otto edition); ἐπιστολαί καθολικαι, or simply καθολικαι, in the title of the Epistles of James, Peter, John, and Jude (R G L; cf. τῶν ἑπτά λεγομένων καθολικων SC. ἐπιστολῶν, Eus. h. e. 2, 23, 25), most probably because they seemed to be written not to any one church alone, but to all the churches. (Cf. Dict. of Chris. Antiq. under the word Catholic.)
