Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for τύπος, the concept of a pattern or example can be related to Hebrew terms such as תַּבְנִית (tabnith, Strong's 8403), meaning "pattern" or "form," and מִשְׁפָּט (mishpat, Strong's 4941), which can imply a standard or ordinance. These terms reflect the idea of a model or standard to be followed, similar to the Greek τύπος. Usage: • The term τύπος is used in the New Testament to denote a pattern or example to be followed, a model of behavior, or a form that serves as a prototype. It can also refer to a physical mark or impression. Context: • The Greek word τύπος appears in several contexts within the New Testament, each highlighting its multifaceted nature as both a literal and metaphorical term. In Romans 5:14, τύπος is used to describe Adam as a "type" of Christ, indicating a prefiguration or foreshadowing. In 1 Corinthians 10:6, it refers to the events of the Israelites as examples or warnings for believers. The Apostle Paul uses τύπος in Philippians 3:17 to encourage believers to follow his example, demonstrating its use as a model for Christian conduct. In 1 Thessalonians 1:7, the Thessalonian believers are commended for becoming a "model" to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia. The term also appears in Hebrews 8:5, where it describes the earthly sanctuary as a "copy and shadow" of the heavenly one, emphasizing the idea of a pattern or prototype. The use of τύπος in these passages underscores its significance in conveying the concept of imitation, representation, and foreshadowing within the biblical narrative.
