Ap. 1, 226; 2, 176; Hb 7:22 v.l.; 12:1; Rv 21:16 v.l.; 1 Cl 1:1; MPol 2:2; Hm 5, 1, 5; Just., Ath.) and οῦτο (Clearchus, Fgm. 48 W.: Diod S 1, 58, 4; PCairZen 367, 38; PMich I [Zen] 28, 17 [III B.C.]; Num 15:5; 1 Macc 3:17; Hb 7:22; 1 Cl 45:7; Just., A I, 56, 2) correlative adj. (Hom.+) ‘so great, so large, so far, so much, so strong’ etc.
    ① pert. to an indefinite high number of entities or events, so many, pl.

    ⓑ without a noun τοσοῦτοι so many people J 6:9; AcPl Ha 7, 21 (unless this goes under 2).
    ② pert. to high degree of quantity, so much, so great
    ⓐ w. a noun τοσοῦτος ὄχλος Mt 15:33b. ὁ τοσοῦτος πλοῦτος Rv 18:17 (Erasmian rdg, and only here w. the art.; s. B-D-F §274; Rob. 771). τοσοῦτον μέλι so great a quantity of honey Hm 5, 1, 5. τοσαύτη ἔκρυσις Papias (3:2). Of space μῆκος Rv 21:16 v.l.

This is prob. the place for τοσοῦτον νέφος μαρτύρων so great a cloud of witnesses (the ‘great’ number being qualified, of course, by literary constraints) Hb 12:1.
    ⓑ without a noun and in a negative sense, εἰς τοσοῦτο(ν) foll. by gen. and ὥστε to such a degree of (Andoc. 2, 7: εἰς τοσοῦτον ἦλθον τῆς δυσδαιμονίας …, ὥστε; Pla., Apol. 13, 25e; Clearchus, Fgm. 48; Jos., Bell. 4, 317 εἰς τος. ἀσεβείας, ὥστε, C.

Perh. Hm 9:1 belongs here: such serious sins (s. 2b above). In satire τοσαῦτα ἐπάθετε; have you had such remarkable experiences? Gal 3:4 (πάσχω 1; others put the pass. under 2b above).
    ④ pert. to a limited extent, so much and no more τοσούτου (gen. of price) for so and so much Ac 5:8ab.
