Context: The Greek verb ἀντιτάσσω appears in the New Testament to describe a posture of resistance or opposition. It is used in contexts where individuals or groups are depicted as standing against divine or moral authority. The term is notably used in James 4:6 and 1 Peter 5:5, where it is written, "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble" (BSB).
