IN POINT OF FACT

"A figure like your Father,

Arm'd at all points exactly, cap-a-pe,

Appears before them."~~~SHAKESPEARE: Hamlet, I, ii.

Think of a medieval knight riding off to battle completely encased (from head to foot, as it were) in armor. Knights thus outfitted were said to be "armed cap-a-pie." The term cap-a-pie (or cap-à-pie), which has been used in English since at least the 16th century, descends from the Middle French phrase de cap a pé, meaning "from head to foot." Nowadays, it is generally extended to more figurative armor, as in "armed cap-a-pie against criticism." Cap-a-pie has also been credited with parenting another English phrase. Some people think the expression "apple-pie order," meaning "perfect order," may have originated as a corruption of "cap-a-pie order." The evidence for that theory is far from orderly, however, and it must be regarded as speculative.

 Alexander III of Macedon (20/21 July 356 – 10/11 June 323 BC), commonly known as Alexander the Great (Greek: Ἀλέξανδρος ὁ Μέγας, Aléxandros ho Mégasiii[›] from the Greek αλέξω alexo "to defend, help" + ανήρ aner "man"), was a king of Macedon, a state in northern ancient Greece. Born in Pella in 356 BC, Alexander was tutored by Aristotle until the age of 16. By the age of thirty, he had created one of the largest empires of the ancient world, stretching from the Ionian Sea to the Himalayas.

“Alexandria”: “The first movement to make the Scripture speak the current tongue appeared nearly three
centuries before Christ. Most of the Old Testament then existed in Hebrew. But the Jews had
scattered widely. Many had gathered in Egypt where Alexander the Great had founded the city
that bears his name. At one time a third of the population of the city was Jewish. Many of
the people were passionately loyal to their old religion and its Sacred Book. But the current
tongue there and through most of the civilized world was Greek, and not Hebrew. As always,
there were some who felt that the Book and its original language were inseparable. Others revealed
the disposition of which we spoke a moment ago, and set out to make the Book speak
the current tongue. For one hundred and fifty years the work went on, and what we call the
Septuagint was completed. There is a pretty little story which tells how the version got its
name, which means the Seventy--that King Ptolemy Philadelphus, interested in collecting all
sacred books, gathered seventy Hebrew scholars, sent them to the island of Pharos, shut them up
in seventy rooms for seventy days, each making a translation from the Hebrew into the Greek.
When they came out, behold, their translations were all exactly alike! Several difficulties appear
in that story, one of which is that seventy men should have made the same mistakes without
depending on each other. In addition, it is not historically supported, and the fact seems to be
that the Septuagint was a long and slow growth, issuing from the impulse to make the Sacred
Book speak the familiar tongue. And, though it was a Greek translation, it virtually displaced
the original, as the English Bible has virtually displaced the Hebrew and Greek to-day. The
Septuagint was the Old Testament which Paul used. Of one hundred and sixty-eight direct
quotations from the Old Testament in the New nearly all are from the Greek version--from the
translation, and not from the original.” ~~~THE GREATEST ENGLISH CLASSIC: A STUDY OF THE
