Opposed to or contradicting the teachings, texts, or principles found in scripture.
From Latin 'contra-' (against) plus 'scriptural' (relating to sacred texts). A theological term combining the prefix with religious vocabulary to describe anti-biblical or unbiblical positions.
Medieval theologians used 'contrascriptural' to identify heretical beliefs—any doctrine that directly contradicted biblical text was immediately condemned as contrascriptural.
