Continual, Continually
Continual, Continually
kon-tinu-al, kon-tinu-a-li: Without cessation, although there may be intervals between its presence; that which regularly recurs throughout a period, as Luk 24:53 : (They) were continually in the temple; lest … by her continual coming (Luk 18:5). In Old Testament for Hebrew tadhr, pursue, as one drop of rain follows another in swift succession, but more frequently by tamdh for offerings repeated at intervals, as Exo 29:42; occasionally the Hebrew has the phrase literally meaning all the day (kol ha-yom), as Gen 6:5. In the New Testament most frequently for dia pantos, through all (always Mat 18:10; Heb 13:15), sometimes, adialeptos, incessantly (Rom 9:2 the King James Version) and dienekes, continuously (Heb 7:3).
