Pattern

VIEW:43 DATA:01-04-2020
PATTERN.—This word is used to render several Heb. and Gr. terms in OT and NT, some of which denote a model, as in Exo_25:9; Exo_25:40 of the building model of the Tabernacle shown to Moses on the mount (cf. Num_8:4—a different original—and Arts and Crafts, § 3), others a copy of the original model as Heb_8:5 RV [Note: Revised Version.] . See, for a full examination of the different passages, Hastings’ DB [Note: Dictionary of the Bible.] , s.v.

pat?ẽrn (תּבנית, tabhnı̄th, ?model,? מלראה, mar'eh, ?a vision? or ?view?): The Old Testament words translated ?pattern? do not necessarily indicate a drawing such as a modern constructor begins with, or the patterns made from these drawings for the guidance of workmen. In Exo_25:9, Exo_25:40 the word ?idea? or ?suggestion? would possibly indicate more distinctly than ?pattern? what Moses received in regard to the building of the tabernacle, etc. It is doubtful if any architect's drawing was ever made of the temple. It is not the custom in Palestine and Syria today to work from any pattern more concrete than an idea. A man who wants a house calls the builder and says he wants to build so many rooms of such and such dimensions with, for example, a court 10 drahs (arm's lengths) wide and 15 drahs long, made of sandstone and plastered inside and out. With these meager instructions the builder starts. The details are worked out as the building proceeds. When a piece of iron or brass work is to be made, the customer by gestures with his hands outlines the form the piece should take. ?I want it haik wa haik? (?thus and thus?), he says, and leaves the metal worker to conceive the exact form. It is probable that directions similar to these were given by David to Solomon. ?Then David gave Solomon his son the pattern (his conception) of the porch of the temple,? etc. (1Ch_28:11). The above does not apply to Greek and Roman work in Syria. Their workmen, probably mostly native, were trained to work from models. Williams in the Architect, January, 1913, says of the works at Baalbek and Palmyra, ?There is a machine-like resemblance betokening slavish copying.? At the present time native workmen coming under the influence of foreigners are beginning to work from models and plans, but they show little tendency to create models of their own.
Three Greek words have been translated in the New Testament: τύπος, túpos, ?type,? occurs in Tit_2:7 and Heb_8:5. In the first instance the Revised Version (British and American) reads ?ensample.? ὑποτύπωσις, hupotúpōsis, ?outline,? has been similarly translated in 1Ti_1:16, but ?pattern? in 2Ti_1:13. In Heb_9:24 the American Standard Revised Version. ἀντίτυπος, antı́tupos, is rendered ?like in pattern.? ὑπόδειγμα, hupódeigma, the King James Version ?pattern,? is translated in the American Standard Revised Version ?copy? (Heb_8:5), ?copies? (Heb_9:23). At the time of the translation of the King James Version the word ?pattern? meant either the thing to be copied or the copy.
