Revelation:5:11 @{And I saw} (\kai eidon\). A new feature introduced by the outer and vaster circle (\kukli\) of angels who catch up the new song of redemption in antiphonal singing, answering the song of the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders. Some MSS. read \hs\ (as if) before \phnn\ (voice). Ten thousand times ten thousand (\muriades muriadn kai chiliades chiliadn\). Literally, "myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands," a mild husteron-proteron. The regular order in I Enoch 40:I. See strkjv@Daniel:7:10| for \chiliai chiliades\ (thousand thousands) and \muriai muriades\ (countless myriads). They are all efforts to express the innumerable hosts of the angels.
