1: δέκα

(Strong's #1176 — Noun — deka — dek'-ah )

whence the Eng. prefix "deca," is regarded by some as the measure of human responsibility, e.g., Luke 19:13,17; Revelation 2:10; it is used in a figurative setting in Revelation 12:3; 13:1; 17:3,7,12,16 .

Notes: (1) In Acts 23:23 , hebdomekonta, "seventy," is translated "threescore and ten." (2) For "ten thousand" see THOUSAND.
