τύπος

Strong’s: G5179

Associated OET lemmas: τύπος

UBS dictionary entries sharing a lemma or Strong’s identifier: τυπικῶς (G5179a)

Notes: Properly speaking, στίγμα[a] (8.55: στίγμα) and τύπος[a] (8.56: τύπος) are not body parts, but may refer to features of the body which may result from some external force or object and could accordingly be classified in Domain 19 Physical Impact. They are, however, included at this point because they may refer to types of scars, which become a permanent feature of the body.

Form 1

Part of speech: noun, m.

Inflections: τύπος; -ου

Related lemmas: τύπτω

Sense 1: scar, wound

Semantic entry: 8.56

Semantic domains: Body, Body Parts, and Body Products

Subdomains: Parts of the Body

Definition: a visible impression or trace made as the result of a blow or pressure{N:001}

Notes: Though both στίγμα[a] (8.55: στίγμα) and τύπος[a] may mean scars, there are significant differences in meaning. στίγμα[a] bears the connotation of brand or mark of ownership, while τύπος[a] indicates a wound or scar resulting from the shape and form of some object, for example, nails in the case of OET JHN 20:25.

Show passage in OET: JHN 20:25

OET-RV JHN 20:25

25 so the other apprentices told him, “We have seen the master.”
¶ But he replied, “I won’t believe that unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands and I can put my finger into the marks and can put my hand into the gash on his side.”

OET-LV JHN 20:25

25 Therefore the other apprentices/followers were _saying to _him:
We _have _seen the master.
But he said to _them:
If I _may_ not _see the mark of _the nails in the hands of _him, and I _may _put the finger of _me into the mark of _the nails, and I _may _put the hand of _me into the side of _him, by _no _means I_˓will˒_ not _be _believing.

Sense 2: likeness, image (see {D:58.35})

Semantic entry: 6.96

Semantic domains: Artifacts

Subdomains: Images and Idols

Definition: an object (not necessarily three-dimensional) which has been formed to resemble a person, god, animal, etc.

Notes: In certain contexts the referents of εἰκών[a], τύπος[b], and χάραγμα [source selector 000001][b] may have special religious significance in that they may refer to idols, but the focal component for the translator is that of a likeness or resemblance. In contexts such as OET MAT 22:20 an equivalent translation may be simply a picture, but in OET ROM 1:23 and OET ACT 7:43 one may use the same expression as is employed to render εἴδωλον[a] idol (6.97: εἴδωλον).
