They actually all basically mean the same thing. It's just different ways of saying it but they have the same meaning.

I agree with @TaylorHartley except for "all the week". In my experience, that is a very rare usage, almost always shortened to "all week".
- I studied for the test all week long. (common)
- I studied for the test all the week long. (possible, but uncommon)
- I studied for the test all week. (another common way. "long" is unnecessary)
- I studied for the test all the week. (wrong, and sounds like an unfinished thought)
Note that both "the whole week" and "the entire week" would work and sound normal in all four examples.
