The only running in Philippians is in 2:16.
Philippians 2:16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain. [kjv]
λογον ζωης επεχοντες εις καυχημα εμοι εις ημεραν χριστου οτι ουκ εις κενον εδραμον ουδε εις κενον εκοπιασα [gnt]
In ancient times, the Corinth games were second only to the Olympic games. Paul uses the running a race analogy.
1 Corinthians 9:24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. [kjv]
ουκ οιδατε οτι οι εν σταδιω τρεχοντες παντες μεν τρεχουσιν εις δε λαμβανει το βραβειον ουτως τρεχετε ινα καταλαβητε [gnt]
The ancient Greek word
"τρέχω" ≈ "run" as in a race and the English word
"trek" and as the name of the bicycle company
"Trek" or the "
trek" in "
Star Trek". This word is related to
"δρόμος" ≈ "run" and is part of the English words
"palindrome",
"syndrome" and
"dromedary" as in a "
camel".
Philippians 2:16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain. [kjv]
λογον ζωης επεχοντες εις καυχημα εμοι εις ημεραν χριστου οτι ουκ εις κενον εδραμον ουδε εις κενον εκοπιασα [gnt]
… vacuum cucurri … vacuum laboravi [v]
Philippians 2:17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all. [kjv]
αλλα ει και σπενδομαι επι τη θυσια και λειτουργια της πιστεως υμων χαιρω και συγχαιρω πασιν υμιν [gnt]
Philippians 2:18 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me. [kjv]
το δε αυτο και υμεις χαιρετε και συγχαιρετε μοι [gnt]
