παμ-πληθεί G3826
all together, with the whole multitude (adverb of collective assembly)
This rare adverb describes a collective action taken by an entire crowd or assembly, emphasizing the unity and totality of the group's response. In Luke 23:18, it captures the dramatic moment when the whole multitude cries out for Barabbas instead of Jesus, demanding crucifixion with one voice. The cross-linguistic evidence consistently reflects this corporate dimension, with Romance languages rendering it as 'all together' or 'everyone together,' underscoring the unanimity of the mob's violent demand before Pilate.
Senses
1. sense 1 — Appearing only once in the New Testament, this term captures the collective cry of the entire crowd before Pilate demanding Jesus' crucifixion. The multilingual glosses ('all-together,' 'todos-juntos,' 'tous-ensemble') consistently preserve the corporate, simultaneous nature of this tragic moment, distinguishing it from individual outcries or sequential responses. This hapax legomenon marks one of Scripture's most chilling displays of mob unanimity. 1×
