ἀντιλογία ἀντιλογίας, ἡ (ἀντίλογος, and this from ἀντιλέγω) (from Herodotus down);
1. gainsaying, contradiction: Heb 7:7; with the added notion of strife, Heb 6:16 (Exo 18:16; Deu 19:17, etc.).
2. opposition in act (this sense is disputed by some, e. g. Lün. on Heb. as below, Meyer on Rom 10:21 (see ἀντιλέγω); contra cf. Fritzsche on Romans, the passage cited): Heb 12:3; rebellion, Jud 1:11 (Pro 17:11).
