Vocabulary of the Greek NT

For στρατόπεδον = ";soldiers in camp,"; ";army,"; as in its only occurrence in the NT (Luke 21:20), cf. Preisigke 4275.7 (A.D. 216) Ἰουλίαν Δόμναν Σεβαστὴν τὴν μητέρα τῶν ἀν [ικήτων ] στρατοπέδων, and similarly 5075.3 (time of Caracalla). In BGU III. 993ii. 7 (B.C. 128–7) ἐν τῶι τοῦ βασιλέως στρατοπέδωι, the word seems to have its ordinary meaning ";camp.";
