πορεία , -ας , ἡ ( <πορεύω ), [in LXX chiefly for H1979 and cogn . forms;] 1. a journey: Luk_13:22 . 2. a going: metaph . ("the rich man perishes while he is still on the move," Hort ., in l ), Jas_1:11 .†

πορεία [page 528] Unlike ὁδός , πορεία , a journey, is rarely used in a metaphorical sense, but cf. Psa. 67꞉ 25 [MT Psa_68:24 ]. With reference to Jas_1:11 Hort, following Herder, makes the happy suggestion that the force lies in the idea of the rich man s perishing while he is still on the move , before he has attained the state of restful enjoyment which is always expected and never arrives. In Syll .3 1267 .19 (iii/A.D.) Isis announces ἐγὼ ἡλίου καὶ σελήνης πορείαν συνέταξα . In P Grenf I. 43 .8 (ii/B.C.) (= Witkowski .2 , p. 109) πορεία denotes passport for a journey, and it is = caravan in P Lond 328 .11 (A.D. 163) (= II. p. 75), where mention is made of camels provided εἰς κυριακὰς χρείας τῶν ἀπὸ Βερνείκης γεινο (μένων ) πορ <ε >ιῶν , for Imperial service on the caravans that travel from Berenice (Ed.). For a wider use of the word cf. P Amh II. 97 .11 (A.D. 180 192) καθὼς διὰ τῆς τοῦ ὁρισμοῦ πορείας δηλοῦ [τ ]αι , as is set forth in the survey (Edd.). Πορεῖον is used collectively in P Cairo Zen 22 .3 (B.C. 256) : see Mayser Gr. II. i. p. 36.
