Of the etymology of this word it may be remarked that, as heavenly or spiritual things cannot be understood but by their being compared with things temporal, Mr. James Macpherson, in a treatise un the immortality of the soul, page 180, when speaking of the ancient Celtics, says that it is from flath (noble or blessed) and innys (an island) the noble or blessed island. They imagined or believed that the virtuous went after death to some noble, blessed, or happy island; and hence the word flaunys. Our phlaase (a palace) may also be from hence. This word is never made use of for the aerial heaven. See niau
