Senses in use

  1. Road thoroughfares as gathering places · dominant

    In Matthew 22:9, the accusative plural form names the destinations to which the servants are told to go; the APB renders the clause, "Go therefore to the thoroughfares of the roads," before instructing them to call those they find to the wedding.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Matthew 22:9, the APB presents the term within "the thoroughfares of the roads." That wording confirms the clause's setting without isolating every element of the phrase.
