βάθος
báthos
deep
depth; a measure of vertical distance or profoundness, both in a physical and extended figurative sense. Primarily denotes the concept of something being deep (as in deep water, a deep place, or an abyss); by extension, it can refer to the profound, the unfathomable, or the incomprehensibly vast — whether of knowledge, wisdom, mystery, or space. In figurative contexts, often used for the 'depths' of divine wisdom or the mysteries of existence.
