χαρακτήρ

eks -pres ´: In the King James Version of Hebrews 1:3 "express" has the meaning "exactly resembling the original," as the impress of a seal resembles the figure engraved upon the seal. Thus "express image" in the verse referred to is a good translation (Greek χαρακτήρ , charaktḗr , literally, "engraving" and hence, "impression"); the Revised Version (British and American) "the very image.»
