The supplied form is consistently tagged as a cardinal adjective in the absolute plural. In Exodus 7:7, two tokens occur in the ages of Moses and Aaron; in 2 Kings 10:24 the APB renders a group stationed outside as “eighty men”; and in Esther 1:4 it renders the length of the display as “one hundred eighty days.” It also forms part of larger totals, as in Numbers 4:48, where the APB renders “eight thousand five hundred and eighty.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the numerical element in expressions such as “eighty men,” “eighty days,” “eighty pieces of silver,” and compound figures such as “one hundred eighty thousand.” These renderings show the verse-level numerical expressions rather than isolating each token in every case.
