In Thor: The Dark World, Odin makes it clear that they “are born, they live, they die, just as humans do”, to which Loki replies that “give or take, 5000 years” – so taking that into account, Odin was at least 5000 years old when he died in Ragnarok.
The average asgardian was stated to live “give or take 5000 years”, Odin is not you're typical asgardian. The age for Odin was never confirmed but he had to be somewhere between 5–10,000 years old. This is evident due to the fact that no one in Asgard. Loki is around the same age a Thor is, 1500 years old.
Thor says that Odin killed Surtur “half a million years ago”, which is probably an exaggeration. This then would make Odin over 500,000 years old. And probably other characters such as Malekith and Bor as even older.
Answer and Explanation: Odin died during the battle of Ragnarok. The battle of Ragnarok was a huge clash between the gods and the giants and ended in the destruction of the Universe.
Being that her soldiers were meant to ferry dead Asgardians to Valhalla, this meant she should be as old, if not older than Hela and Odin, who he worked with before he settled as a benevolent ruler.
Hades is the oldest of the Olympians, but you kind of get the impression that he is as powerful as either of his brothers, Zeus or Poseidon. He's not a very warlike god so it's hard to say how good a fighter he was.
“Odin is highest and eldest of the Æsir [the primary group of Norse gods]: he rules all things, and mighty as are the other gods, they all serve him as children obey a father,” it says. The Edda was based on Old Norse tradition but was written in 13th century Iceland long after Vikings had converted to Christianity.
He sacrificed his eye in Mimir's well and he threw himself on his spear Gungnir in a kind of symbolic, ritual suicide. He then hanged himself in Yggdrasil, the tree of life, for nine days and nine nights in order to gain knowledge of other worlds and be able to understand the runes.
It is a series of events that prepare the world to be reborn - a cleansing, so to speak. During these events, Odin faces off against Fenrir the Wolf and loses. Fenrir actually swallows Odin, ending Odin's life.
He has feats such as defeating Surtur (who can destroy a planet), conquering the 9 realms, and sealing away Hela. While there isn't much doubt that Thanos could beat Odin if he had all 6 stones, Odin could probably defeat Thanos if he only had one or two of them.
Chronologically speaking, most scholars contest that Odin was created before Zeus . The earliest evidence for worship of Zeus goes back before 500 BCE, but Odin is attested by various Germanic tribes as far back as the 12th century BCE.

In Thor: The Dark World, Odin reminds Loki that Asgardians are not immortal and have lifespans as humans do, to which Loki responds: "Give or take 5,000 years." From this, it can be calculated that Asgardians live to about 5,100, with Loki being around 1050 years old in the MCU.

Both opponents meet their death in this battle, which is a part of the ultimate destruction of the current world, known as Ragnarök.
In modern literature (such as Marvel Comics) it has become popular to portray Loki as the adopted son of Odin. This however has no basis in Norse mythology, where Loki is portrayed as the blood brother of Odin.
According to one version of the myth, Fenrir will devour the sun, and in the Ragnarök he will fight against the chief god Odin and swallow him. Odin's son Vidar will avenge his father, stabbing the wolf to the heart according to one account and tearing his jaws asunder according to another.
Jesus is a god of mercy and healing. Waging large scale war is more of a Thor and Tyr thing, so it would be more correct to call Odin a god of competition/dueling. Jesus is not much of a fighter. Despite being the son of YHVH, his offensive power is limited.
