NT:2250
hemera (hay-mer'-ah); feminine (with NT:5610 implied) of a derivative of hemai
(to sit; akin to the base of NT:1476) meaning tame, i.e. gentle; day, i.e.
(literally) the time space between dawn and dark, or the whole 24 hours (but
several days were usually reckoned by the Jews as inclusive of the parts of both
extremes); figuratively, a period (always defined more or less clearly by the
context):
KJV - age, alway, (mid-) day (by day, [-ly]), for ever, judgment, (day) time,
while, years.
