STRONGS NT 499: ἀντίτυποςἀντίτυπος, ἀντίτυπον (τύπτω), in Greek writings:
1. properly,
a. actively, repelling a blow, striking back, echoing, reflecting light; resisting, rough, hard.
b. passively, struck back, repelled.
2. metaphorically, rough, harsh, obstinate, hostile. In the N. T. language ἀντίτυπον as a substantive means:
1. a thing formed after some pattern (τύπος (which see 4 a.)) (German Abbild): Hebrews 9:24 (R. V. like in pattern).
2. "a thing resembling another, its counterpart; something in the Messianic times which answers to the type" (see τύπος, 4 γ.) prefiguring it in the O. T. (German Gegenbild, English antitype), as baptism corresponds to the deluge: 1 Peter 3:21 (R. V. text after a true likeness).
