This entry is not finished

Etymology

It is possible that this GN is related to the Greek PN recorded in Revelation 2:13, ANTIPAS, a common hypocoristic form for *anti'patros, โ€œlike (his) fatherโ€ (cf. *anti'pais, โ€œlike a child; a mere boyโ€), an extremely common Greek name or epithet. Note the Greek city name antipatri's, โ€œbelonging to Antipater,โ€ a city built by Herod the Great in memory of his father (Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews 16:142ff.).

It is also possible that the GN is composed of two elements, anti- and -pas. For the first element see the discussion under ANTINEPHILEHI. For -pas, cf. Nabatean ps, โ€œpart, portion,โ€ Punic ps, โ€œtablet,โ€ or Nabatean psอ‚sอ‚, โ€œto be divided, to be violated, to be separatedโ€ (DNWSI 921 & 931).

Cf. Book of Mormon ANI-ANTI, ANTIOMNO, ANTION, ANTIONAH, ANTIONUM, ANTIPARAH, ANTIPUS, ANTUM, ANTINEPHILEHI, CORIANTON, CORIANTOR, CORIANTUM, CORIANTUMR, GADIANDI, GADIANTON, IRREANTUM, LEHONTI, MORIANTON, MORIANTUM, ONTI(ES), SEANTUM.
