English (Strong)
apparently a primary word; a road; by implication, a progress (the route, act or distance); figuratively, a mode or means: journey, (high-)way.
English (Thayer)
ὁδοῦ, ἡ (apparently from the root, ἘΔ, to go (Latin adire, accedere), allied with Latin solum; Curtius, § 281); the Sept. numberless times for דֶּרֶך, less frequently for אֹרַח; (from Homer down); a way;
1. properly,
a. a travelled way, road: κατά τήν ὁδόν (as ye pass along the way (see κατά, II:1a.)) by the way, on the way, σαββάτου ὁδός (A. V. a sabbath-day's journey) the distance that one is allowed to travel on the sabbath, σάββατον, 1a.). ἡ ὁδός with a genitive of the object, the way leading to a place (the Hebrew דֶּרֶך also is construed with a genitive, cf. Geseuius, Lehrgeb., p. 676 (Gr. § 112,2; cf. Winer's Grammar, § 30,2)): ἐθνῶν, τῶν ἁγίων into the holy place, ζάω, II.
b. (τοῦ ξύλου, Gcn. 3:24; Αἰγύπτου ... Ἀσσυρίων, γῆς Φιλιστιειμ, τοῦ Σινᾶ, via mortis, Tibull. 1,10, 4; cf. Kühner, ii., p. 286,4). in imitation of the Hebrew דֶּרֶך, the accusative of which takes on almost the nature of a preposition, in the way to, toward (cf. Gesenius, Thesaurus, i., p. 352{a}), we find ὁδόν θαλάσσης in ὁδόν (τῆς θαλάσσης, γῆς αὐτῶν, ὁδόν δυσμῶν ἡλίου, ὁδόν θάλασσαν ἐρυθράν, Thiersch, De Alex. Pentateuchi versione, p. 145f; (Buttmann, § 131,12)), with a genitive of the subject, the way in which one walks: ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτῶν, ἑτοιμάζειν τήν ὁδόν τῶν βασιλέων, κατευθένειν τήν ὁδόν τίνος, to remove the hindrances to the journey, ἑτοιμάζειν (and ἐυθύνειν, κατασκευάζειν, τήν ὁδόν τοῦ κυρίου, see ἑτοιμάζω.
b. a traveller's way, journey, travelling: ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ, on the journey, on the road, ἐξ ὁδοῦ, from a journey, αἴρειν or κτᾶσθαι τί εἰς ὁδόν, εἰς τήν ὁδόν, πορεύομαι τήν ὁδόν, to make a journey (Xenophon, Cyril 5,2, 22), with αὐτοῦ added (A. V. to go on one's way), to continue the journey undertaken, ὁδός ἡμέρας, a journey requiring a (single) day for its completion, used also, like our a day's journey, as a measure of distance, ἀοπέχειν παμπολλων ἡμερῶν ὁδόν, Xenophon, Cyril 1,1, 3, cf. Herodotus 4,101 (Winer's Grammar, 188 (177))); on the phrase ὁδόν ποιεῖν, ποιέω, I:1a. and c.
2. Metaphorically,
a. according to the familiar figure of speech, especially frequent in Hebrew (cf. Winer s Grammar, 32) and not unknown to the Greeks, by which an action is spoken of as a proceeding (cf. the German Wandel), ὁδός denotes a course of conduct, a way (i. e. manner) of thinking, feeling, deciding: a person is said ὁδόν δεικνύναι τίνι, who shows him how to obtain a thing, what helps he must use, εἰρήνης, ζωῆς, σωτηρίας, τῆς δικαιοσύνης, the way which ἡ δικαιοσύνη points out and which is accustomed to characterize ἡ δικαιοσύνη, so in δικαιοσύνη, 1b., p. 149{a} bottom); used of the Christian religion, τῆς ἀληθείας, τοῦ Κάϊν, τοῦ Βαλαάμ, ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ, in all his purposes and actions, τάς ὁδούς μου ἐν Χριστῷ, the methods which I as Christ's minister and apostle follow in the discharge of my office, πορεύεσθαι ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτῶν (to walk in their own ways) who take the course which pleases them, even though it be a perverse one, πορεύω, under the end); αἱ ὁδοί τοῦ Θεοῦ or κυρίου, the purposes and ordinances of God, his ways of dealing with men, ἡ ὁδός τοῦ Θεοῦ, the course of thought, feeling, action, prescribed and approved by God: ἡ ὁδός τοῦ κυρίου, ὁδός used generally of a method of knowing and worshipping God, ἡ ὁδός simply, of the Christian religion (cf. Buttmann, 163 (142)), ἐγώ εἰμί ἡ ὁδός I am the way by which one passes, i. e. with whom all who seek approach to God must enter into closest fellowship, ὁδός in certain formulas and phrases (Winer s Grammar, 590f (549f); Buttmann, § 123,8; Bos, Ellipses etc. (edited by Schaefer), p. 331f.)
