Two-myriad grouping in a troop count · dominant
The nominative plural feminine form occurs in the clause giving the number of cavalry troops. In Revelation 9:16 the APB renders the reported total as “two myriads of myriads,” confirming that the term functions within a numerical troop count.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Revelation 9:16, the APB presents the numerical clause as “two myriads of myriads.” It does not isolate the contribution of the individual Greek form.
