Wiktionary examples

These source excerpts show how antéchrist appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.

  1. Tout incident de persécution empruntait à la mythologie de l’Antéchrist quelque chose de son carac­tère effroyablement dramatique ; au lieu d'être apprécié en raison de son importance matérielle, […], il était un élément de la guerre engagée par Satan, prince de ce monde, qui allait bientôt révéler son Antéchrist.
  2. On parlait beaucoup de l’Antéchrist ; on en a sans doute parlé de tout temps dans les communautés chrétiennes, mais cette obsession de la Fin semble avoir été plus forte dans ce petit milieu qu’à d’autres époques, comme la nôtre, où tant de raisons incitent à y songer.
