It conveys the idea of being in a position contrary to something or someone, often implying hostility or antagonism. This term is used to describe both physical and ideological opposition.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of opposition was not only physical but also philosophical and ideological. The term ἀντίκειμαι would have been understood in various contexts, such as political opposition, military resistance, or philosophical debate. In the New Testament, it often describes the opposition faced by early Christians from both Jewish and Gentile communities, as well as spiritual opposition from demonic forces.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>480</b> <i>antíkeimai</i> (from <a href="/greek/473.htm">473</a> <i>/antí</i>, "against" and <a href="/greek/2743.htm">2743</a> <i>/kautēriázō</i>, "to place") – properly, place fully against, <i>constitutionally</i> oppose – like someone being <i>thoroughly unreconcilable</i> ("intractable, implacable").</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/473.htm">anti</a> and <a href="/greek/2749.htm">keimai</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to lie opposite, i.e. oppose, withstand<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>adversaries (1), contrary (1), enemy (1), opponents (3), opposes (1), opposition (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 480: ἀντίκειμαι</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀντίκειμαι</span></span>; <p><span class="textheading">1.</span> <span class="accented">to be set over against, lie opposite to,</span> in a local sense ((<span class="abbreviation">Hippocrates</span> de aëre, p. 282 Foes.
