In 1 Peter 3:21, the nominative singular neuter form occurs in the statement about baptism, which the APB renders as saving “as its counterpart.” In Hebrews 9:24, the accusative plural neuter form modifies hand-made holy places; the APB renders the clause “which are representations of the true things.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with “counterpart” in 1 Peter 3:21 and “representations” in Hebrews 9:24. These renderings show the clauses' presentation rather than a precise one-to-one translation.
