Meaning: Euodia, or rather Euhodia, a Christian woman of Philippi.

Word Origin: Derived from the Greek words "εὖ" (eu, meaning "good" or "well") and "ὁδός" (hodos, meaning "way" or "path").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Hebrew equivalent for Euodia, as it is a Greek name. However, the concept of a "good path" or "prosperous journey" can be related to Hebrew words like "דֶּרֶךְ" (derek, meaning "way" or "path") and "טוֹב" (tov, meaning "good").

Usage: Euodia is a personal name mentioned in the New Testament. It means "prosperous journey" or "fragrant." In the context of the Bible, it refers to a female member of the early Christian church in Philippi.

Cultural and Historical Background: Euodia was a prominent woman in the Philippian church, which was one of the first Christian communities established by the Apostle Paul in Europe. Philippi was a Roman colony in Macedonia, and the church there was known for its strong faith and support of Paul's ministry. Women in the early church often played significant roles, and Euodia, along with Syntyche, is noted for her involvement in the ministry.
