ἐναντίος enantíos, en-an-tee'-os; from G1725; opposite; figuratively, antagonistic:—(over) against, contrary.
STRONGS G1727:
ἐναντίος, -α, -ον, (ἀντίος set against), [from Homer down], properly, that which is over against; opposite; used:
1. primarily of place; opposite, contrary: of the wind (Xenophon, an. 4, 5, 3), Matthew 14:24; Mark 6:48; Acts 27:4; ἐξ ἐναντίας [Winers Grammar, 591 (550); Buttmann, 82 (71)], opposite, over against (see ἐκ, I. 4), with the genitive Mark 15:39.
2. metaphorically, opposed as an adversary, hostile, antagonistic in feeling or act: 1 Thessalonians 2:15 (on which passage [for confirmatory references to ancient authors] cf. Grimm on 3 Macc. 7:4 [on the other hand, see Lünem. on 1 Thess. the passage cited]); ὁ ἐξ ἐναντίας, an opponent [A. V. he that is of the contrary part], Titus 2:8; ἐναντίον ποιεῖν τί τινι, to do something against one, Acts 28:17; ἐναντία πράττειν πρὸς τὸ ὄνομά τινος, Acts 26:9. Neuter ἐναντίον, adverb, as a preposition is constructed with the genitive [Buttmann, 319 (273)], before, in the sight of, in the presence of, one (so in Greek writings from Homer down; Sept. often for לִפנְיֵ and בְּעֵינֵי also for לְעֵינֵי): Mark 2:12 (T Tr marginal reading WH ἔμπροσθεν); Luke 20:26; Acts 7:10 (ἐναντίον Φαραώ, when he stood before Pharaoh [here Tdf. ἔναντι, which see]); Acts 8:32; hebraistically, in the judgment, estimation, of one, Luke 24:19; [Luke 1:6 T Tr WH] (Genesis 10:9, etc.). [τὸ ἐναντίον i. e. τοὐναντίον see in its place.]
