The Watchtower of September 15, 1950, defined a “type ” and an“ antitype ” this way: “A type is an image or representation of something that will come to pass at some future time. The antitype is the reality of the thing which the type represents.
Majalah The Watchtower terbitan 15 September 1950 menjelaskan bahwa ” gambaran ” memaksudkan sesuatu yang melambangkan hal lain di masa depan, dan ” padanan ” memaksudkan hal yang dilambangkan tersebut.
