Berean Strong's Lexicon ribbo: Ten thousand, myriad Original Word: רִבּוֹ Word Origin: Derived from the root רָבַב (ravav), which means "to be many" or "to multiply." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3461 (μυριάς, murias): Often translated as "myriad" or "ten thousand," used similarly in the New Testament to denote a large, indefinite number. Usage: The Hebrew word "ribbo" is used to denote a large, indefinite number, often translated as "ten thousand" or "myriad" in English. It is used in the context of counting large groups or quantities, emphasizing abundance or multitude. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, numbers were often used symbolically. The number ten thousand (ribbo) was not always meant to be taken literally but was used to convey the idea of a vast, innumerable quantity. This reflects the ancient Near Eastern practice of using large numbers to express greatness or vastness, similar to how "thousands" or "millions" might be used in modern language.
