| '''Etymology'''
| |
|
| |
| When analyzing this composite name, the first question that should be asked is whether the first element, ''anti'', is a translation or whether it is a transliteration of a [[NEPHITE(S)|N<small>EPHITE</small>]] word.
| |
|
| |
| If ''anti'' is a transliteration, it might come from the [[EGYPT|E<small>GYPTIAN</small>]] relative marker ''nty'' (Coptic ''ente'') meaning "which is," which can be nominalized as "that which is". Since the gentilic of the term is used in the plural, if it were pluralized as [[EGYPT|E<small>GYPTIAN</small>]] it should be ''ntyw''. This would mean something like "those who are Nephi-Lehi". In later stages of [[EGYPT|E<small>GYPTIAN</small>]], the relative marker and the genitive marker were confused. If this term derived from such a situation, it would mean something like "those of Nephi-Lehi".
| |
|
| |
| If ''anti'' is a translation, the meaning could be “facing Nephi-Lehi,” from the [[HEBREW|H<small>EBREW</small>]] word that means approximately “''anti'',” (''neged''), i.e., “facing, opposite, etc.” ([[Hugh W. Nibley|HWN]]). It is the [[HEBREW|H<small>EBREW</small>]] Vorlage in [http://scriptures.lds.org/en/gen/2/18#18 Genesis 2:18] of “help meet.” (The Greek Vorlage of English “''anti''” can mean “opposite, against, in exchange, instead, representing, rivaling, simulating.” See OED.) Perhaps from such considerations, it has been suggested that the significance of '''A<small>NTINEPHILEHI</small>''' is “those who imitate the teachings of the descendants of [[NEPHI|N<small>EPHI</small>]] and [[LEHI|L<small>EHI</small>]]” ([[Daniel H. Ludlow|Ludlow]], A Companion to Your Study of the Book of Mormon, 210).
| |
|
| |
| [[Hugh W. Nibley|Hugh Nibley]] suggested to one of his classes that ''anti'' might come from Arabic ''inda'' which, like Greek ''anti'', means "opposite". Since this root is not found in other Semitic languages, it may actually be a borrowing from Greek.
| |
|
| |
| Taken as a translation, and separating the group Nephi-Lehi, it might mean "descendants of Lehi opposed to Nephi". ([[John Gee|JG]])
| |
|
| |
| It has also been suggested, *without attestation, that “Anta-Anti,” is an old Indian word, “a mountain region in the land of Nephi in the land of Lehi” (CBM, III, 366).
