Origin of the word ANTITYPE.  Etymology of the word ANTITYPE.

From An Etymology Dictionary of the English Language, by Walter W. Skeat, 1893

 

ANTITYPE,  that which answers to the type.  (Gk.)   Bp. Taylor, Of the Real Presence, s. 12. 28, speaks of 'type and antitype.'   The word is due to the occurrence of the Gk. ἀντίτυπον (A.V. 'figure') in 1 Pet. iii. 21, and the pl. ἀντίτυπα (A.V. 'figures') in Heb. ix. 24.    This sb. ἀντίτυπον is the neut. of adj. ἀντίτυπος, formed according to a model.—Gk. ἀντί, over against; and τύπος, a blow, also a model, pattern, type, from the base of τύπτειν, to strike.   See Anti-, and Type.   Der. antityp-ic-al.
