Explanation: This word is a present middle/passive participle derived from the verb ἀντέχομαι (antechomai), which means to hold fast to, to cling to, to be devoted to, or to adhere to. It is a compound word formed from ἀντί (anti, meaning 'against' or 'in return for') and ἔχω (echō, meaning 'to have' or 'to hold'). In this form, it refers to a group of people who are actively holding onto or devoted to something, and the dative case indicates they are the indirect object or recipient of an action.
