Strong’s Definitions [?](Strong’s Definitions Legend)
ἐλαιών elaiṓn, el-ah-yone'; from G1636; an olive-orchard, i.e. (specially) the Mount of Olives:—Olivet.
STRONGS G1638:
ἐλαιῶν, -ῶνος, ὁ, (the ending ών in derivative nouns indicating a place set with trees of the kind designated by the primitive, as δαφνών, ἰτεών, δρυμών κεδρών, cf. Bttm. Ausf. Spr. ii., p. 422ff: Kühner, i., p. 711; [Jelf, § 335 d.]); an olive-orchard, a place planted with olive trees, i. e. the Mount of Olives [A. V. Olivet] (see ἐλαία, 1): Acts 1:12 (διὰ τοῦ ἐλαιῶνος ὄρους, Josephus, Antiquities 7, 9, 2). In Luke 19:29; Luke 21:37 also we should write τὸ ὄρος τὸ καλούμενον ἐλαιῶν (so L T Tr, [but WH with R G -ῶν]); likewise in Josephus, Antiquities 20, 8, 6 πρὸς ὄρος τὸ προσαγορευόμενον ἐλαιών; b. j. 2, 13, 5 and 5, 2, 3 εἰς (κατὰ) ἐλαιὼν καλούμενον ὄρος; 6, 2, 8 κατὰ τὸ ἐλαιὼν ὄρος; [but in Josephus the passages cited; Bekker editions, -ῶν]. Cf. Fritzsche on Mark, p. 794f; Buttmann, 22 (19f); Winers Grammar, 182 (171) n. 1; [but see WHs Appendix, p. 158b]. (The Sept. sometimes render זַיִת freely by ἐλαιών, as Exodus 23:11; Deuteronomy 6:11; 1 Samuel 8:14, etc.; not found in Greek writings.)
