Antiquity:
an-tik'-wi-ti (qadhmah, from qadham, "to precede in time," "to be old"): In Eze 16:55; 36:11, rendered "former"; in Ps 129:6, "before." Translated "antiquity" only in Isa 23:7 to indicate the primeval age of Tyre, which Strabo terms, "after Sidon," the oldest Phoenician city. Delitzsch renders it "whose origin is from the days of the olden time."
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
