Thayer's Greek Lexicon
ἔκβασις, ἐκβασεως, ἡ (ἐκβαίνω);
1. an egress, way out (Homer, et al.): applied figuratively to the way of escape from temptation into which one εἰσέρχεται or εἰσφέρεται (see these words), 1Co 10:13.
2. in a sense foreign to secular authors, the issue ((cf. its objective sense e. g. Epictetus diss. 2, 7, 9)) equivalent to end: used of the end of life, Wis 2:17; ἔκβασις τῆς ἀναστροφῆς τινων, in Heb 13:7, is not merely the end of their physical life, but the manner in which they closed a well-spent life as exhibited by their spirit in dying; cf. Delitzsch, at the passage.
