Ἀντίπας (T, Ἀντείπας), -α (in some MSS. it appears to be indecl.; but v. M, Pr., 12; it is abbrev. from Ἀντίπατρος), ὁ, Antipas: Re 2:13.†
Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
᾿Αντίπας rather needless trouble to emend ἄρτι παρ.---αἰά he know that the word occurred in Biblical literature? If the compound is rightly read there, it might be a new coinage, as it may well be in Wisdom and in Luke. Any writer was free to make a fresh compound like this for a special purpose. Straton was morally the most tainted writer in the Anthology, and we may be quite sure he owed as little to Holy Wnit as it owed to him!
