'Similitude' in the Bible

This similitude spake Jesus to them, and they knew not what the things were that he was speaking to them;

His disciples say to him, 'Lo, now freely thou dost speak, and no similitude speakest thou;

Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.

and happened to them hath that of the true similitude; 'A dog did turn back upon his own vomit,' and, 'A sow having bathed herself -- to rolling in mire.'
