Strong's Lexicon antilogia: Contradiction, opposition, dispute Original Word: ἀντιλογία Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: antilogia Pronunciation: an-tee-log-ee'-ah Phonetic Spelling: (an-tee-log-ee'-ah) Definition: Contradiction, opposition, dispute Meaning: contradiction, contention, rebellion. Word Origin: From the Greek words ἀντί (anti, meaning "against") and λόγος (logos, meaning "word" or "speech"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "antilogia," the concept of opposition or rebellion can be found in words like מְרִי (meri, meaning "rebellion") and רִיב (riv, meaning "dispute" or "contention"). Usage: The term "antilogia" refers to a verbal opposition or contradiction. It is used to describe situations where there is a dispute or argument against something, often in the context of opposing divine truth or authority. In the New Testament, it is typically used to highlight the resistance or rebellion against God's word or His messengers. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, rhetoric and debate were common practices, and the ability to argue effectively was highly valued. The concept of "antilogia" would have been understood as a formal opposition or contradiction, often in a public or legal setting. In the context of early Christianity, believers frequently faced opposition from both Jewish and Gentile communities, who resisted the teachings of Jesus and the apostles.
