1 | Strong's Number: g1250 | Greek: diakosioi |
Two Hundred:
occurs in Mar 6:37; Jhn 6:7; 21:8; Act 23:23 (twice); 27:37, "two hundred (threescore and sixteen);" Rev 11:3, "(a thousand) two hundred (and threescore);" so Rev 12:6.
Note: In Act 27:37, some ancient authorities read "about threescore and sixteen souls" (RV, margin). The confusion was quite natural when the word diakosioi was not written in full but represented by one Greek letter. The larger number is by no means improbable: Josephus sailed for Rome in A.D. 63 in a ship which had 600 on board (Life, ch. 3).
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
