Strong's Lexicon murias: Ten thousand, myriad Original Word: μυριάς Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: murias Pronunciation: moo-ree-as' Phonetic Spelling: (moo-ree'-as) Definition: Ten thousand, myriad Meaning: a myriad, group of ten thousand, a ten thousand. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word μυρίος (murios), meaning "ten thousand" or "countless." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in the Old Testament is רִבּוֹ (ribbô), Strong's Hebrew 7239, which also means "ten thousand" or "myriad." Usage: In the New Testament, "murias" is used to denote a large, indefinite number, often translated as "ten thousand" or "myriad." It conveys the idea of an innumerable or vast multitude, emphasizing the enormity or abundance of something. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, "murias" was commonly used to represent the largest numerical value in everyday language, similar to how "million" is used in modern English. It was often employed to express hyperbole or to describe an overwhelming quantity. In the context of the New Testament, it reflects the grandeur and vastness of God's creation, the multitude of angels, or the number of believers.
