I know virtually nothing about this, but “the lawless man” in an ancient context doesn’t sound to me like an anarchist. I think “tyrant” is the more likely interpretation.
You’re probably right, but I like the funny image of the Catholic Church having a pic of a angsty teen in a shirt with the Anarchy ‘A’ as it’s “ultimate enemy”.
Yeah, a tyrant is lawless in the sense that they’re “above” the law, and uses a hierarchy to enable that end. An anarchist is lawless in the grassroots “I ain’t licking your boots” questioning the asserted authority of others sort of way
