STRONGS G2304:
θεῖος, -εία, -εῖον, (θεός), [from Homer down], divine: ἡ θεία δύναμις, 2 Peter 1:3; φύσις (Diodorus 5, 31), 2 Peter 1:4; neuter τὸ θεῖον, divinity, deity (Latin numen divinum), not only used by the Greeks to denote the divine nature, power, providence, in the general, without reference to any individual deity (as Herodotus 3, 108; Thucydides 5, 70; Xenophon, Cyril 4, 2, 15; Hell. 7, 5, 13; mem. 1,4, 18; Plato, Phaedr., p. 242c.; Polybius 32, 25, 7; Diodorus 1, 6; 13, 3; 12; 16, 60; Lucian, de sacrif. 1; pro imagg. 13, 17. 28), but also by Philo (as in mundi opif. § 61; de agric. 17; leg. ad Gai. 1), and by Josephus (Antiquities, 1, 3, 4; 11, 1; 2, 12, 4; 5, 2, 7; 11, 5, 1; 12, 6, 3; 7, 3; 13, 8, 2; 10, 7; 14, 9, 5; 17, 2, 4; 20, 11, 2; b. j. 3, 8, 3; 4, 3, 10), of the one, true God; hence, most appositely employed by Paul, out of regard for Gentile usage, in Acts 17:29.
