procession, march; ways, habits, conduct; caravan, traveling company
2. ways, habits, conduct — The customary behavior, ways, or practices of a person or of God, used in an abstract or metaphorical sense. In Proverbs 31:27, it describes the goings-on (activities, management) of a household; in Habakkuk 3:6 it refers to the eternal ways of God. Arabic suluk ('conduct'), Hindi chal-dhal ('manner of living'), Korean gil-deul ('paths/ways'), and Spanish caminos ('ways') confirm an abstract figurative extension from physical walking to patterns of behavior and divine governance. 2×
