<p> ''''' shāp ''''' : In the King James Version the translation of εἶδος , <i> ''''' eı́dos ''''' </i> , "form," "appearance" ( Luke 3:22; John 5:37 ), and of ὁμοίωμα , <i> '''''homoı́ōma''''' </i> , "likeness," "resemblance" ( Revelation 9:7 ). The meaning of these words is not so much "tangible shape," in which sense we use the word in modern English, but rather "aspect," "appearance," the looks of a thing or a person. This is even the case where the word is joined with the adjective σωματικός , <i> '''''sōmatikós''''' </i> , "bodily" as in the passage Luke 3:22 , "The Holy [[Spirit]] descended in a bodily form (i.e. "in a corporeal appearance," the King James Version "in a bodily shape"), as a dove, upon him." The second passage also refers to the "appearance" of God, and cannot therefore be regarded as material shape: "Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form" (the King James Version "shape") ( John 5:37 ). As has been seen from the above quotations, the Revised Version (British and American) which retains the translation "shape" for <i> '''''homoiōma''''' </i> , has translated <i> '''''eidos''''' </i> with "form," which also serves to render several other [[Greek]] synonyms, such as μορφή , <i> '''''morphḗ''''' </i> ( Mark 16:12; Philippians 2:6 f), μόρφωσις , <i> '''''mórphōsis''''' </i> ( Romans 2:20; 2 Timothy 3:5 ), τύπος , <i> '''''túpos''''' </i> (the Revised Version margin "pattern" Romans 6:17 ), and ὑποτύπωσις , <i> '''''hupotúpōsis''''' </i> (the Revised Version (British and American) "pattern," 2 Timothy 1:13 ).

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [4]

shāp  : In the King James Version the translation of εἶδος , eı́dos , "form," "appearance" (  Luke 3:22;  John 5:37 ), and of ὁμοίωμα , homoı́ōma , "likeness," "resemblance" ( Revelation 9:7 ). The meaning of these words is not so much "tangible shape," in which sense we use the word in modern English, but rather "aspect," "appearance," the looks of a thing or a person. This is even the case where the word is joined with the adjective σωματικός , sōmatikós , "bodily" as in the passage  Luke 3:22 , "The Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form (i.e. "in a corporeal appearance," the King James Version "in a bodily shape"), as a dove, upon him." The second passage also refers to the "appearance" of God, and cannot therefore be regarded as material shape: "Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form" (the King James Version "shape") ( John 5:37 ). As has been seen from the above quotations, the Revised Version (British and American) which retains the translation "shape" for homoiōma , has translated eidos with "form," which also serves to render several other Greek synonyms, such as μορφή , morphḗ ( Mark 16:12;  Philippians 2:6 f), μόρφωσις , mórphōsis ( Romans 2:20;  2 Timothy 3:5 ), τύπος , túpos (the Revised Version margin "pattern"  Romans 6:17 ), and ὑποτύπωσις , hupotúpōsis (the Revised Version (British and American) "pattern,"  2 Timothy 1:13 ). In the King James Version The Wisdom of Solomon 18:1 "shape" translates morphē , the Revised Version (British and American) "form."
