It is used in the New Testament to denote a quantity or count of twenty items or units. This numeral is straightforward in its application, often appearing in contexts involving measurements, ages, or counts.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Greek and Jewish cultures, numbers held significant importance, often used in various aspects of daily life, including commerce, architecture, and religious practices. The number twenty, while not as symbolically rich as numbers like seven or twelve, was still a practical and necessary part of the numerical system. In the context of the Bible, numbers often carry symbolic meanings, but "eikosi" is primarily used in a literal sense.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>twenty<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>three* (1), twenty (3), twenty-four* (6), twenty-three* (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1501: εἴκοσι</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">εἴκοσι</span></span> (or <span class="greek2">εἴκοσιν</span>; <span class="manuref">Tdf.</span> uses <span class="greek2">εἴκοσι</span> ten times before a consonant, and says <span class="greek2">εἴκοσι</span> "<span class="latin">etiam ante vocalem fere semper in manuscripts antiquiss."
