1 δισμυριάς
δισμυριάς, άδος, ἡ (so Tdf. S. Vog. M. Bov.) a double myriad (i.e. 20,000) Rv 9:16 (also written separately δὶς μυριάς H.; δύο μυριάδες v.l., but precision would require δισμυριὰς μ., since only one double-myriad of tens of thousands appears to be in view); the undefined pl. suggests several units of twenty-thousand multiplied by 10,000. An indefinite number of incalculable immensity is indicated (as indefinite as the ἀναρίθμητοι μυριάδες of Theopompus in Περὶ ὕψους 43, 2). If the Hb. רִבֹּתַים רִבּוֹת, in which the first part expresses multiplication through the fem. dual form, underlies the Gk. phrase, δισμ. might well be the equivalent of this dual and with similar mng. ten thousand times ten thousand, i.e. ‘a very great number’. S. GMussies, Δύο in Rv 9:12 and 16: NovT 9, ’67, 151–54; s. also his Morphology pp. 223–25.—DELG s.v. δί.
