Antipas comes from two words: anti = against and papa = pope. Basically, Antipas is a symbolic name representing all those who were martyred during that time for their protesting against the papacy. There is no significant record of any specific person during that time by the name of Antipas.
The correct pronunciation of Antipas is AN-ti-pas, with the emphasis on the first syllable.
">Revelation 2:13 is the only New Testament mention of Antipas, so all we know of him is to be found in verses 12 & 13. We are told that he was a member of the church in Pergamos, he was faithful, and he was martyred (killed because of his faithfulness). Revelation 2:13: "I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth. " The word 'martyr' originally meant 'witness', so does this reference does not necessarily mean that Antipas was martyred, or even persecuted as a Christian. The passage refers to him being killed among the people of PergamosChristian tradition is that Antipas was bishop of Pergamos. If so, this would have been no earlier than the early second century, when the office of bishop (overseer) was instituted, and thus dating the Book of Revelation well into the second century. Others say that Antipas was probably fictional.The only Antipas known outside Revelation 2:13 is Herod Antipas, a first century ruler of Galilee and Perea, and son of Herod the Great. Following from his father, Herod Antipas was probably at least nominally a Jew and thus could be described as a faithful witness ('martyr') by a Jewish author who may have written material later incorporated into Revelation. Against this is that Herod Antipas could not have died in Pergamos.Antipas was either an otherwise unknown martyr, or a representation of all of the faithful Christians who were willing to stand 'against all', as the name means, against Satan.

AnswerHerod Antipas was the son of King Herod the Great. Herod the Great's father was an Idumean and his mother was a Nabataean. So, Antipas could best be described as a Palestinian of mixed ethnic origins.
There are two references regarding the name Antipas. I do not know if they are two different people or one and the same.
