TYPE

occurs only once in Scripture (1-Cor 10:11, 1-Cor 10: A.V. marg.). The Greek word _tupos_ is rendered "print" (John 20:25), "figure" (Acts 7:43; Rom. 5:14), "fashion" (Acts 7:44), "manner" (Acts 23:25), "form" (Rom. 6:17), "example" or "ensample" (1-Cor 10:6, 1-Cor 10: 11; Phil. 3:17; 1-Thess 1:7; 2-Thess 3:9; 1-Tim 4:12). It properly means a "model" or "pattern" or "mould" into which clay or wax was pressed, that it might take the figure or exact shape of the mould. The word "type" is generally used to denote a resemblance between something present and something future, which is called the "antitype."
