'World' in the Bible

Then the devil led him up to a high place and showed him in a flash all the kingdoms of the world.

For what does it benefit a person if he gains the whole world but loses or forfeits himself?

so that this generation may be held accountable for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the beginning of the world,

For all the nations of the world pursue these things, and your Father knows that you need them.

The master commended the dishonest manager because he acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their contemporaries than the people of light.

People will be fainting from fear and from the expectation of what is coming on the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
