Meaning

Alway; Always ol'-way, ol'-waz (archaic and poetic): Properly applied to acts or states perpetually occurring, but not necessarily continuous. In Hebrew, most frequently, tamiydh. In Greek dia pantos, ordinarily expresses continuity. In Mt 28:20 "alway" the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "always," translation Greek pasas tas hemeras, "all the days," corresponding to the Hebrew idiom similarly rendered in Deu 5:29, Deu 6:24, Deu 11:1, Deu 28:33, 1Ki 11:36, etc. Greek aei in Act 7:51, 2Co 6:10, 1Pe 3:15, means "at every and any time."
