English (LSJ)

τό, = Lat.

   A Praetorium, official residence of a governor, Ev.Matt.27.27; later, of private residences, Just.Nov.159 Praef.    II praetorian guard: ἔπαρχος πραιτωρίον, τοῦ π., = praefectus praetorio, OGI707 (Tyre, ii A.D.), IG14.911, etc.    2 imperial household, Ep. Phil.1.13.

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

πραιτώριον: τό, = Λατ. Praetorium, ἐν χρήσει παρὰ τῷ Εὐαγγ. κ. Ματθ. κζ΄, 27· ἡ ἐπίσημος κατοικία διοικητοῦ, «διοικητήριον», καὶ ἐν τῇ Ἐπ. πρὸς Φιλ. α΄ 13, λαμβάνεται συνήθως ὡς σημαῖνον τὰ ἀνάκτορα τοῦ Καίσαρος, ἀλλ’ ἐν Ρώμῃ ἡ λ. Praetorium συνήθως ἐσήμαινε Castra Praetoriana, ἔπαρχος πραιτωρίου, ἴδε Συλλ. Ἐπιγρ. 2596, κ. ἀλλ.

French (Bailly abrégé)

ου (τό) :
= lat. praetorium : prétoire, palais du prince, du gouverneur.

English (Strong)

of Latin origin; the prætorium or governor's courtroom (sometimes including the whole edifice and camp): (common, judgment) hall (of judgment), palace, prætorium.

English (Thayer)

πραιτωριου, τό, a Latin word, praetorium (neuter of the adjective praetorius used substantively); the word denotes
1. 'headquarters' in a Roman camp, the tent of the commander-in-chief.
2. the palace in which the governor or procurator of a province resided, to which use the Romans were accustomed to appropriate the palaces already existing, and formerly dwelt in by the kings or princes (at Syracuse illa domus praetoria, quae regis Hieronis fuit, Cicero, Verr. 2:5,12, 30); at Jerusalem it was that magnificent palace which Herod the Great had built for himself, and which the Roman procurators seem to have occupied whenever they came from Caesarea to Jerusalem to transact public business: Philo, leg. ad Gaium, § 38; Josephus, b. j. 2,14, 8; also the one at Caesarea, Keim, iii, p. 359f. (English translation, vi., p. 79; B. D. under the word Smith's Bible Dictionary, Praetorium).
3. the camp of praetorian soldiers established by Tiberius (Suetonius 37): Winer s RWB, under the word Richthaus; (Lightfoot s Commentary on Philippians , pp. 99ff) rejects, as destitute of evidence, the various attempts to give a local sense to the word in Philippians , the passage cited, and vindicates the meaning praetorian guard (so R. V.)).
